NME says: “For all the doom and gloom that living in our digital
world brings, it’s not all bad, as ‘Screen Violence’ shows. After all,
without our devices, apps and screens, this record wouldn’t exist
and, given that it’s Chvrches’ best effort yet and a glimmeringly
great addition to 2021’s cultural highlights, that would be a
travesty.” Full review: here. Score: 4/5.

Lauren Mayberry (singer): “It was horrible to have to only see
people on screens – I’ve not seen my mum in 3D since Christmas
2019. But I think, if anything, it made me more grateful because if
this didn’t exist I couldn’t talk to you; we couldn’t have made this
record and we couldn’t have spoken to any of our friends and
family. It makes you think – are the machines evil, or are we?”
