Laura Jane Grace isn't a fan of this release, stating in 2015 "To be honest, to get into it with the old live record, it always bummed me out, You put that record on and the first song on it, 'The Energizer,' it's so drag-ass slow. It made me so sad every time I heard it. Warren, who played drums with us then, had real tempo issues, and Atom, is a better drummer. I'm not judging them morally as people, just saying musicianship-wise..."[2]
