"Recorded live, this pandemic-era collaboration covering songs on death and loss by Depeche Mode, Mercury Rev, Suede and more occasionally transcends its source material".

"Overall, Death Songbook doesn't hang together as an album; it is not a unified listen. Most tracks were recorded at Cardiff's Donald Gordon Theatre without an audience, and feel like studio recordings".

"This collaboration between Suede frontman Brett Anderson and Charles Hazlewood's Paraorchestra tackles themes of death, loss and anxiety. Featuring orchestral arrangements by Charlotte Harding, the album fuses pop by the likes of Depeche Mode and Echo and the Bunnymen with a classical sensibility, and showcases delightfully surprising instrumental voices in a haze of warm reverb".
