Distorted Sound8/10 [5]

Tom Fordham of Distorted Sound gave Livewired in Europe an 8 out of 10 rating, stating in his review, "Capturing their iconic sound in a live environment is always going to be a special moment; Nebula once again light up the stage and give you a live experience unlike anything in the stoner scene." Martin Williams of The Sleeping Shaman wrote in the conclusion of his positive review of the album, "Livewired in Europe is a glorious, fuzzy, heavy, sometimes quasi-sloppy, testament to Nebula's skill, power, tenacity, and consistency as a stoner rock band, even under the circumstances of missing a longtime member and having a fill-in bassist."
