Gorefest "Eindhoven Insanity"
link. This has to be one fo the best live death metal performances I've ever heard on a CD. The sound on this CD is phemoninal, esp. since most live death metal CDs are terrible. And the actual performance was pretty good too! It's a shame this one is out of print and so hard to find.
Give it a listen on a good digital source and full range speakers with healthy amplifier behind them. Awesome.
From the CD liner notes...The idea to release this live Lp came up on the 1st day of the Dynamo Open Air festival where we were set to play the 2nd day. When we found out that a Dutch radio station was recording some bands playing the festival on 24 tracks to be broadcast some time later on a late night rock program, and that we could get those recordings and do with' them as we pleased. Since the "Dynamo" is Hollands biggest metal festival we saw it as the high light of our carreer so far to be featured on the festival bill and it seemed like a good idea to do this little live thing inbetween tours
The basic idea behind this release is to capture the feel of that gig complete with all the little mistakes that happen when you are jumping around on a stage and banging your head off. Especially when you're playing in front of 45.000 people from all over Europe, you can bet that it gets you quite nervous!
The other thing that got us stressed was the fact that our drummer had had surgery on his right hand thumb one day before the gig, leaving him with a hole through wich you actually could see the bone. All of this didn't make him and us feel very comfortable the las hours before the gig.
Anyway it was a day we will never forget, and hopefully you all enjoyed it as the response from the crowd was really overwhelming. Thats the reason we've released this, a reasonable soundquality live recording (we think) and hope you like it. Our thanks go out to all you people who've enjoyed our gigs and supported us over the last three and a half years and who made us what we are today, Watch out for our next studio album early summer '94
CHEERS AND THINK !
