Absu is one of my favourite US bands, so naturally I've picked up some bootlegs of their live shows as well. Unfortunately, I had most on VHS. Here's one of the few I got on tape, another gig at the Baroeg and promoting "The Sun Of Tiphareth" album & the "...And Shineth..." 7"EP released the same year. Good set, I would've only switched "The Coming Of War" with "The Sun Of Tiphareth" or "A Quest Unto The 77th Novel" or preferably added them and a song or two from "Barathrum.: V.I.T.R.I.O.L." but can't have everything, I know. Especially pleased with them including "Cyntefyn's Fountain" - they better still do that live if they ever finally wander up to Finland!
Enough babbling, back to business. The sound of the recording is pretty good for a Baroeg gig. Nothing's really too loud, though this time I could have the drums louder. Biggest gripe with this one is probably the way too long and tedious intro bit, but I decided to remain faithful to the original dub and not shorten it. At least you can skip it, unlike me when I listened to it on cassette. Recommended to all who bother with these live bootlegs in the first place and Absu fans of course.

Good one!! Pretty cool live-set they had back then.
If you're interested, here http://lockjaw-yappy.blogspot.com/2009/03/absu-us-live-at-u2-bad-worishofen.html is an audiorip of a VHS tape I posted some time ago, good sound & great gig. Furthermore, if interested, an instr. rehearsal from '93: http://lockjaw-yappy.blogspot.com/2009/08/absu-us-instrumental-rehearsal-93.html
Velkaarn, I was finally able to reach some stuff by Evrakon (swe) in trade. Unfortunately it's pure garbage in my eyes, but I thought I should at least let you know. Decide for yourself, pal!

Everyone should check out THE DECEASED's link up there for the Bad Wörischofen live, it is excellent!!!
Hails! It seems to be that the link unfortuanly is dead, is a reupload possible?
@Invidia:
Will do that now. Hmm, seeing how Yappy's blog is long gone I wonder if I should repost THE DECEASED's stuff?
