A sort of of echoey big hall feel to this, muddy in parts, but generally listenable. A pity really as this is a special one. Unfortunately a goodly part of "Gut" is missing on my copy.
What a wonderfully unholy racket this is. The Bend Sinister tour hits London at a pace with a sort of manic cocky assurance and I would guess with a surfeit of keyboards and guitars given the wallness of the sound herein. Every song is played with a violent disregard for the eardrums of the listener and with such ferocity one wonders if anyone survived the night. Layer upon layer of associated and dissociated noise pile on to create a dense unremitting performance.
Excellent playing throughout layered with a howling and yelling wall of noise from Mark and Brix. Hanley is prominent throughout and indeed is masterful. No one track stands out.

Recommended other than the recording which is just about OK.
