Let me start with the only minor aspect of this album. There's no background information about this band's past. So, let me give you that. As Leviticus broke up in 1990, it's likely many never heard of this band. Leviticus is a Swedish metal/hard rock band that got started in 1981, with guitarist Björn Stigsson and drummer Kjell Andersson. The first album was released in 1984 (Jag Skall Segra, aka I Shall Conquer). Three more records were released, and a best-of in 1995. Björn Stigsson did one solo album and continued with XT, a band that released three albums in the early nineties. Now Leviticus is reformed and getting ready for a new studio album. This live disc is a real interesting piece of history reviving. The sound quality is really good. Songs included are Messiah, The Suffering Servant, Deborah And Barak and several others. Leviticus had various singers, but on this disc you can hear Peo Pettersson doing a great job. This is Leviticus at its best!
