Sleaze Roxx stated the following in its review of Queensrÿche‘s set at the inaugural Slam Fest in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada on July 6, 2019: “With the band’s last three albums that have all featured Todd La Torre, Queensrÿche have made a conscious effort to rekindle that relationship with their fan-base. They have brought forth a sound of old that many are really gravitating towards. I myself commend the band for doing so and feel that a lot of the material on those three albums is stellar, but with that said, in a concert setting, I prefer to hear the popular material. Possibly it’s because they followed Great White and Skid Row. With those two bands playing so many hits, it created a certain expectation. Somehow, Queensrÿche missed that mark, but they are entitled to play whatever they want and I feel had it been solely a Queensrÿche show, I would have been a little more receptive to what they had to offer.”
