This Finnish import features tracks recorded live at Noctum Studios in Nelson, New Zealand, in mid-1998 during the group's Animal Kingdom world tour for a promotional radio show. The sound quality is surprisingly pristine for such a random recording; unfortunately, the lack of low-end bass sounds hinder the amount of "grind" one can evoke from this live grindcore execution. Still, many of the group's better tracks appear, including a few from their debut album, Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses. The group's official live album, Goodbye Cruel World, is undoubtedly a much more comprehensive showcase of the band's live performances. Thankfully though, grind freaks not satisfied with the limited material released by this defunct band should find this a satisfying addition to the infamous band's canon. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
