"The thumping Stuck in Daily Mail Land blended Campbell’s driving bass with amazing percussion from Chris Bell. Cornwell’s voice smooth but always able to go up a notch, he commented on the undeniably subdued audience, before hammering into Dagenham Dave."

"With a mix of old and new, I think what made Hugh such a personable experience is that it almost felt as if it wasn’t a concert at all – more of a jam session. It didn’t feel like it was pre-planned or to a set list – it just felt like musicians doing what they do best."

"Ook in zijn teksten is Cornwell nog niks van zijn scherpte kwijtgeraakt. Ironisch, snerend en schijnbaar controversieel observeert hij de wereld om zich heen met een ontwapenend satanisch genoegen."

A magia do Abrunhosa no segundo dia do Festival Vilar de Mouros
jornalc.pt
"Um dos momentos mais esperados do dia era os The Stranglers. O grupo inglês regressou passados 32 anos ao mítico espaço do Vilar de Mouros, o único repetente de 71 foi o José Cid. O concerto cheio de êxitos da banda, foi um dos mais aclamados da noite, revelando que a música é geracional. Os êxitos Golden Brown e Always the Sun foram fortemente entoados, tocados a meio do set o que fortificaram ainda mais o concerto de uma parca hora."
