Test Dept.- Festival Extramuralhas, Teatro José Lúcio da Silva, Leiria, Portugal - 30'.08.2019 (Flac 24/48)



Excellent. Thanks to ziggyswoon for sharing.

Original Info File:

Test Department bringing the house down with a full performance of their latest "Disturbance". Test Dept. is another band i thought i would never be able to see live ever. They have only been to Portugal once in 1992 to a festival named Citemor but according to a few who were there it was not so good. Well, this time was! And even if this new life of the band is not the large collective from the past they are still true to what TD was and are taking it to new levels. It was a sonic and visual blast. The electronics are more present but the raw power of the songs and the poignancy of the themes still are the focal point of TD.
I was not able to figure out names of track 4 and 9. Track 4 sounds familiar to me so it must be an older track. Track 9 is produced with excerpts of Donald Trump's speeches and even if some of the ambiance of the track is not unknown to me i take it as a new track.
TD are touring the US from September 12 2019 go see them if you can.
Meanwhile enjoy this :-)
Cheers

  1. It looks, that the 9th track is called Faces of Freedom (HeadFuck) - NOzone Mix.
