“Instruments and amplifiers were clustered tightly at the center of the massive Mountain Stage. It was electrifying to witness their determination to deliver a performance just like they would in a gritty, sweat-soaked underground club, regardless of the venue’s vast size. Although Jon Spencer is over sixty, his vocals—reminiscent of a deranged Elvis Presley—remain completely unchanged. Musically, the band has shifted away from the modernity of the JSBX era—where hip-hop was deeply ingrained in their sound—leaning instead toward a more orthodox brand of junk-blues-punk. They kept stage banter to an absolute minimum, eschewing excessive crowd-baiting in favor of a style that relentlessly unleashed one high-energy track after another with barely a pause between them. While they did perform songs from the JSBX days, they treated them simply as part of the set rather than as special highlights. They powered through a fifty-minute set with a performance that was stoic yet endlessly cool and impassioned.” – Yoshiharu Kobayashi / Rolling Stone Japan
