Released via Pancromatic on heavy turquoise wax, limited to 500
Live 2012 - I and II is a 2 part series of live recordings from the same weekend in summer
2012. Back then, only recorded for reference by the band, with improvised equipment.
“Live 2012 - I” got recorded live at the Zytanien Open Air on a friday and has a more
technoid vibe to it, while “Live 2012 - II” got recorded the night after on the Rock Den See
Festival, and has a more rock attitude to it.
They got released as very limited CD-R editions and digitally.
Now, 11 years later, Pancromatic Record Norway gives us the opportunity to listen to those
recordings on vinyl, which is two releases on a colored double LP each, with fitting and new
artwork by Lulu Artwork.
For this release, the recordings got mastered as good as possible by Falko at Institut für
angewandten Krach.
Includes unlimited streaming of Live 2012 - II (mastered version) turquoise wax
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

"If you’re a long-term fan of one or more of the participating groups or of modern acid rock in general, you won’t need much convincing to add this gem to your collection. But even if you’re completely unfamiliar with this whole scene, yet interested in dipping your toes into the wide world of spaced-out guitar music, I would highly recommend this idealized ISS homage as a gateway experience to the genre."
