EDGUY - Fuckin With F*** - Live


Most of you are familiar with the sound of Edguy. When it all started, many people raised an eyebrow, wondering, if they could also sing as well. After so many years, Edguy not only managed to create a big band, not only managed to get to the top, but also stayed there. So, here is a recording in Sao Paolo, that will be released in a DVD and in a double CD live, to prove exactly that. Usually I am not a big live album fan, but this one was really a very pleasant surprise. This, because the release manages to put you into the stadium, and feel like you are one of the crowd. The screaming, the communicating with people, the fun everyone's had, everything is here, and not cut, giving a complete experience to the listener as well. The songs are well picked, from their early days to the latest releases, including Avantasia, and the crowd seems to have a good time, screaming, participating and singing along. The production is excellent, leaving space for the audience's reactions, without destroying the result. For those that were into the stadium that night, this release is a must have. But it's also a good release for all those that want to see, and/or listen how this gifted band sounds live.

10/10
