5.0 out of 5 stars Great Live Performance From Art-Rock Masters, November 17, 2006

I am normally not a fan of live music, mostly because I am a fan of polished production technique, and many bands who perform the styles of music I enjoy (progressive/avant-garde rock and metal) are often handicapped by the nature of their music when they attempt to reproduce it live. Dream Theater is one exception, and Dredg is another. Of course, these two bands are completely different stylistically, but they have the same knack for pulling off complex, instrument-heavy, effects-laden music in a live setting.

The members of Dredg are an extremely grandiose and artistic band, and their albums are sonically dense, with sound effects, choral sections, a cornucopia of guitar effects, and multi-tracked vocals and guitar. Because of this, their music would be extremely difficult to perform live, but as this concert attests, they perform admirably. I was especially glad to notice that Gavin Hayes' vocals were up to par, since his vocal style is such an integral part of the band's sound. Another neat thing about this live performance for Dredg fans is the inclusion not only a good set list of songs from their last three albums, but one or two unreleased rarities. Long set (19 tracks), great value and excellent performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible LIVE show, November 10, 2006

I have seen Dredg live about 6 times and not one show was not worth the time and money, in fact I would like to see a Dredg show as much as possible if I could, but this live cd is just as good. Same ol Road has been given a new face and well as Sang Real. The show opener and closer are fantastic and the old school favorite of mine "Yahataze" is performed as well. The sound is immaculate and the show is intense. I can never get enough of listening to Dredg, they are one of the top five best live acts in the world!

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, January 8, 2007

After hearing El Cielo and Catch without Arms, I was intrigued by the music of Dredg but not overly impressed. This live recording has prompted a newfound respect for the band. The songs are replicated quite accurately and the vocals, had they not been up to par, would have destroyed this recording. Fortunately, Gavin Hayes does a remarkable job of maintaining great voice throughout and proves that Dredg is serious about their music. The selection of songs is great and makes for a perfect addition to the Dredg library. It would have been great if this concert was filmed for a DVD. Maybe that's next.
