much like any live album, I would say to people, dont buy it untill youve heard the studio stuff, its not worth finding out about the songs for a live album, when you listen to a studio CD your listening to songs, when you listen to a live album, your hearing the band, in live, raw, gutfelt emotion. To buy this album with out hearing RATM would be stupid, but for fans, this CD captures Rage in their finest, sell out moment, with a belt full of hits and determination on their side, the 4 piece decimate the grand olympic, to a crowd over 5000 strong.

Before diving into your wallet to buy this album I would seriously reccomending tasting the sound of this original 4 piece rap/metal/rock band, or else you cant appreciate it. the band have always stood for political equality, human rights, and freedom of speach. their music intends to liberate the mind, and with an open mind the listener can hold something unique from really "listening" to their work, not just hearing. the four piece not only has lyrical genius on their side, it holds a strong guitar arsenal fronted by tom morrello, who to be honest bashes out riffs you wont hear in the UK top 40 this sunday, truely unique melodies capturing every aspect of their roots and where they come from.

if youve heard rage before, this is CRUCIAL listening, whether you love it or hate it, i cant reccomend this enough. ok, I will admit the sound quality isnt perfect, but why ask for studio quality recordings of a live performance, its just not a live album other wise haha.

if your willing to open yourself into the world of Rage in live concert, buy this album. if not, then hey, a closed mind leads to a closed world.
