Album Notes & Community Reviews

This stunning multi-disc recording from the band's 2016 European tour stands as one of the most sonically pristine documents of their 'radical action' era. The setlist is particularly notable for featuring a flawless, complete performance of their notoriously difficult, labyrinthine instrumental masterpiece, 'Fracture'.
