Thomas Treo of Ekstra Bladet says that "the rock band's newfound format is firmly cemented with the concert recording Livegasm!", which "appears to sounds almost unreal" and on which the new songs impress the most.[4]

Jan Opstrup Poulsen of Danish music magazine GAFFA calls Livegasm! "an excellent documentation of a band that has regained energy and can also play on new strings", on which "it is a bit unexpected that the new songs are the strongest", but "that the audience's singing along and cheering is fully mixed into the soundtrack [which] somewhat ruins the pleasure".[5]
