No Use For a Name
I have a couple live Descendents albums which are just awful. Normally I would stay away from live punk albums. But there are some good live punk records NOFX "I heard they suck live" and AFI.
I've been a NUFAN fan since 1998. I had pretty much all there stuff. I waited a while to buy this one because I'm always iffy buying live punk albums.
This album is different. The sound quality is great. It has all their big songs from 1990-00. This came out shorty after "More Bitterness". It has "invincible" , "Coming Too Close",and "Chasing Rainbows" from more bitterness. It will not dissapoint. .


Mind-Blowing!
These guys are totally awesome live, and it translates remarkably well onto the CD. Unlike a lot of people, I prefer studio music over live music when it comes to recordings, but this is my fav NUFAN album ever. The song selection is great as well, and I simply can't get enough of this album.


NUFAN at its best !!!
Surely this is the best nufan cd. . Lately they have been making slower songs (but it doesn't mean they are bad), but in this cd they show how hardcore they were. . .
This cd brought me to nufan, and it's a good choice if you're curious about this band.


A good NUFAN retrospective
Despite changing lineups after every album they've ever made, the people on this record know the songs well and play them perfectly. In terms of technical ability you can't knock NUFAN at the time they made this live record. Some real NUFAN classics are present and correct; Soulmate, On the Outside, Feeding the Fire and Justified Black Eye are all just as you'd want to hear them. The main flaws with this record are more down to the changing musical tastes of the band themselves. There are too many slow ones! When you're playing live everyone expects to hear the up-tempo danceable numbers, not the tearful slow stuff! Growing Down or Revenge would have been welcome instead of Chasing Rainbows etc. But I guess there's always songs you wish a band had played live.

Pretty good all round. If you like rock ('cos let's be honest, they're not really punk are they?) you'll like this.


Great compilation. oh ya and its live.
For one, inbetween some songs they make conversation with the audience. This was a great CD, however it wasn't a great live CD. I'm not sure wether they're trying to be funny or to just talk but they dont do a very good job. And also thier live music is exatly like thier CD music. I thought because its live there should be some change, some alteration of thier songs in some way. To me it was just a compilation. A compilation by a fantastic, amazing band but still nothing special.
