Xtort - Live In Eindhoven [Dildo Action Records]

Put out on the circuit via Dildo Action Records as a hand-numbered and limited to 20 copies cassette tape on February 14th, 2k22 is "Live In Eindhoven", the latest physical release by the long-standing Dutch band outfit Xtort. Recorded live - well... obviously - at the famed Effenaar venue in Eindhoven in mid-2k20 the nine track showcase presents a thrilling impression of the bands high octane stage performance weighing in banging, surely Rave- / Sound Of Belgium-infused takes on EBM, classic and well dark'ish Goth romanticisms, dramatic Industrial workouts as well as a well surprising collage of DAF lyrics fused and (ab)used to form a megamix tribute to the legendary German Industrial / ElectroPunk duo as well as more uplifting and SynthPop leaning goodness. Plus - to complete the two digit number trackwise Xtort added a previously unreleased studio version of "Dreams Of Pleasure", a cover interpretation of the 1983 Antler Records single by the Belgian PostPunk-band Siglo XX which rounds things off with an undisputable dancefloor smasher on this hand-assembled and silver-spraypainted collectors item. Check.
