Live In Reykjavik


Well, my post now is about Mezzoforte's latest album, Live In Reykjavik!! Well, i think this is the most unique and innovative Mezzoforte's masterpiece. It contains songs from the earlier albums, but they improved it again untill it reaches the perfect zone, in my opinion. Well, here what the site said :

The DVD, Live in Reykjavik features 20 songs recorded by a special 10 piece version of the band during 3 concerts in Reykjavik, Iceland in march of 2007. Bonus material consists of footage from rehersals as well as a slideshow of photos spanning the band’s carreer.
