Artist: Soundgarden
Date: 1994
Location: Deinze, Belgium
Bootleg Title: Violently Happy
Setlist:
Jesus Christ Pose/ Spoonman / Let Me Drown / Mailman / The Day I Tried to Live / My Wave / Room a Thousand Years Wide/ Black Hole Sun / Searching with my Good Eye Closed/ Superunknown / Rusty Cage / Mind Rape / Fell on Black Days / Hand all Over / Kickstand / Face Pollution (mislabled as Slaves and Bulldozers)
I picked this disc up for a few bucks at a used record store, which was quite cool since Soundgarden bootlegs don't seem to be really easy to come across. The sound quality on this disc isn't great, but it is tolerable. There is quite a bit of bass, and the vocals are a bit quiet, but there isn't much audience noise. My guess would be that this show was recorded by a well placed DAT recorder, but I don't have the source info. The setlist is pretty good and the performance is a good one although the band doesn't seem to have a lot of energy between songs. It seems like Chris is pissed or annoyed or something. The disc just kind of fades out after face pollution, which leads me to believe that this isn't a complete set. I wouldn't pay $40 for this bootleg unless you are a serious SG collector, but if you can find it, it will please both serious and casual collectors.
How I would rate this album (F-A+):
Sound Quality (source) - B (unknown, probably DAT)
Setlist - A
Performance - A
Overall Score - B+ |
