"The 15 tracks walk you through the ferocious nature of the band's live shows. The sound is mixed, sometimes so intense and evil and other times morbid and depressive - a great mixture! :) The legendary "Temple of the Morning Star" is filled with a distorted sound and somehow faster riffs in the beginning. The vocals are even more "evil" and I just love them that way. Chris Issac's "Wicked Game" is a true gem, great work done on that song. "Crutch" is... I don't know... That show must have been maaaaaad."Blindspot" is probably the best display of vicious vocals."Why Don't We Do It In The Road" by the Beatles is just amazing, I bet the Beatles wouldn't agree :)I highly recommend this live CD to all the true fans, it just makes you listen it on and on."
Holy sh_t

"Well, I can say I have spent some time already in this whole "metal" thing searching for something that would make me say "Oh mercy please!"... Now I can rest for a while as THIS seems to be just what I have been looking for. This is my bad dream come true - a sick man doing sick stuff that rocks like nothing. The way he mixes the live cuts with all the odd side material makes for a hauntingly depressive concept album that is best appreciated on a straight no-pause listen. My personal point is - I enjoy Slayer, but this is what I would expect them to do on an acid trip that would actually TAKE them to hell... Hey, check out the photos in the booklet - man, now I come to grasp the title of his last work, because Steve Austin has really got some serious SADNESS in his eyes... HMMMMM he sure gives me THE CREEPS!"
The live TITD experience and then some!

"First off, let me state this bluntly: Today Is The Day are one of the most innovative metal bands in existence! On LIVE TILL YOU DIE, their abilities are fully demonstrated. The live tracks, ranging from the unplugged acoustic versions of "Temple Of The Morning Star" and "Blindspot" (which both previewed live on the air) to the ferocious versions of "Pinnacle" and "In the Eyes of God", the live TITD experience is fully represented. However, the album doesn't stop there! In addition to the live tracks, there are three covers, two of classic rock songs and one of a cheesy 80's love song; a tape loop created during the I THE EYES OF GOD sessions; and a solo tribute by Steve Austin to his deceased father. The quality is far above most live albums, and if you're a true fan of TITD, you absolutely need this. So what if you'll never look at "Feel like Makin' Love" and "Wicked Game" the same way again?"
