laut.de

The website laut.de gave the album four out of a possible five points:

“In front of an insane backdrop of what feels like 100,000 spectators, they literally explode the concert area of ​​'Das Fest' in Karlsruhe, including the hill that belongs to it. A single wall of sweating and raging bodies is seething in front of the stage; the cult festival in the south of Germany is the ideal venue for a combo like Seeeds. [...] The choice of songs is definitely the subject of heated discussions. Personally, I miss a "Papa Noah", whereas the silty "Slow Life" has now even been raised to the rank of a single. It is a shame that "Fire The Hidden" regularly fails in the audience's favor. But even if you don't really like the songs themselves, the performance of them is beyond all doubt. "
