The album contains tracks that are a major reworking of songs from the band's back catalogue rather than brand new material.
Please Remain Seated debuted at number 8 on the UK Albums Chart, continuing the band's recent run of top 10 albums in the 2010s.
Inspiration for the album came from the band working on their track "Love Walked In" as a B-side for their Christmas 2017 single.
The title for the album reflects the mood of the music contained on the album, which is of a softer nature than many of their traditional tracks.[citation needed]

| Maximum Volume Music | 8.5/10[1] |
Andy Thorley of Maximum Volume Music gave the album a positive review, stating in conclusion "That really, exemplifies why this was always going to work. Thunder aren't afraid to take chances. Other bands have tried this sort of thing, and it's been something that no one but them could enjoy. "Please Remain Seated", however is the sound of one of the finest bands we have pleasing themselves but also having the skill to take everyone else along for the ride too.”
Please Remain Seated debuted at number 8 on the UK Albums Chart.
