No Exit is a 2016 live album by English pop singer Marianne Faithfull. The album was released as both an audio work and a concert film made up of a 92-minute performance in 2014 and a bonus 30-minute collection of songs from 2016.
Reception
Editors at AllMusic rated this album 3.5 out of 5 stars, with critic Thom Jurek writing this album "is immediate; even raw in places" and that Faithfull's "now-ravaged, grainy voice continues to possess a power and expressivity that commands lyrics authoritatively and experientially", summing up that "it belongs on every Faithfull fan's shelf". At Louder Sound, Chris Roberts scored this album 3.5 out of 5 stars, writing that "the visual element works better" for the "moody songs"; he also praises the musicianship of the backing band but criticizes that the production sounds tinny.
