Reviewing Joe & The Shitboys’ set at the 2019 edition of Iceland Airwaves festival, NME wrote: “During their 40-minute set, the shit-punks from the Faroe Island (population 51,000) are wicked, fearless and like to poke fun at just about everyone.
“During one song they want to check out how many of the crowd are ‘white cis-gender men’ and they call out a crowd-member at random during the song ‘Life is Great You Suck’ but blow them a kiss just so they know it’s all fun and games.”
