"Believe it or not but I was there in Mexico DF when they gave a concert. 20.000 yes 20.000 people attended the show! No wonder they love Mexico so much. If you listen to the live album than you hear me scream Nina ! Yes, that is me. I wanted to shout everyone's name of the band but I got silenced by the deafening screams all around me because the music kicked in. You would not know the feeling I had when they played their concert , seeing the stadium size etc. I never thought they would play such a huge crowd! I guess they are the best well known secret on the planet. Actually I read an article from some
Norwegian International free trade expert named Alex Burghoorn , a big shot..I fell over when he mentioned Clan Of Xymox , that he knew the band and loved them , imagine a corporate! anyway he used them in his thesis about globalization and thought COX was the example for him , a band making it their own way , being very international orientated and making it!
This album shows how they do it, how they manage to captivate their audience , how they mesmerize everyone attending their shows. No wonder the crowd goes insane. I DID !!
That concert in Mex DF I will never forget. This album is my personal testament to those days in my favorite neighbor country. Get this album and you will be there too!"
My new obsession

"I have been on a huge goth and industrial kick lately. I have only had the pleasure of hearing this awesome goth band courtesy of a friend of mine who has burned me a couple of goth/industrial cds that included a couple of songs from them. I absolutely loved what I heard. So when I saw their 2 cd live album in the used cd bins today, I thought I would acquaint myself with their music even more so. I was just absolutely blown away by both the music and sound quality of this album. The live aspect of the album is raw and unpolished. It invites the listener to their concert and makes him or her as if he or she was at the concert. Definitely one of the best live albums I have ever heard, and coming from a goth band, "Live" is a classic. Musically, I absolutely loved every song that I heard on both cds. This is everything that goth ought to be. Ronny has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. I will have to say that he is my favorite male vocalist at the moment and definitely one of my top favorite singers in general. It is really difficult to pick a favorite song on this album because they are just too good. I will say this that this live album has made me want to check out other Clan of Xymox albums in the near future."
I wish I was there

"What can I say , when I hear this album I simply want to jump into my speakers and be part of the crowd. Yes , I am a true fan but could unfortunately not go to South America where all these recordings were taking place. The crowd sounds wild. I wish I was there.
The live songs are played perfectly and the quality is very good. The crowd luckily does not dominate the recordings too much which is a good thing, afterall you want to hear the music and not the fans screaming. As always 5stars"
