Gorod have teamed up with Inanimate Existence, Kamikabe, and Vale of Pnath to destroy a path across the United States in the coming months, and I couldn't be more stoked about it. Their 2012 masterpiece A Perfect Absolution left me with the need for some live Gorod in my life so insatiable that apparently they felt it over in France, and listened to my pleas. Now the real question is this- what the hell are they going to play? Their whole catalogue is flat out amazing, and choosing an hour or so worth of material isn't going to be an easy task. Not that it ever is for a band, but when everything you've done is awesome, picking the most awesome of all the awesome must be difficult.
Gorod, if you're reading this, I suggest playing A Perfect Absolution front to back. Just do it.
