Tribulation will release their new double live album Alive & Dead At Södra Teatern on November 29. The album features two sets both performed on the same night at Södra Teatern in Stockholm, Sweden. One set showcases the band playing their 2018 album Down Below in full, and a second set features a bunch of older material.
Alive & Dead At Södra Teatern will be released as a CD/DVD combination, as well as an LP/DVD combination. Here's what Tribulation had to say about the performance and album.
"Playing Stockholm is always a special occasion for us, and since we've been living here for so long it in a way feels like playing at home. Since it's a special thing for us, we always try to make it special for everyone else as well. Having the show at Södra Teatern made finding these special things easier than if we had been at a different location since just being there provided us with a beautifully haunting backdrop and gave us half of the ideas. Having the show in two acts is something that we've had in mind for quite some time, and being at an old theatre obviously made this the perfect opportunity."
"Along with the two acts we also had Orvar Säfström as a compere or as a, more dramatic sounding, master of ceremonies framing the evening with two short speeches at the beginning of each act. We played Down Below from start til finish in the first act with a stage set up we've never used before, something that could hint at a future development. Time will tell. The second act was the more traditional act with the old stage design and an array of old songs. The best thing about it might be that this event might be the first of similar events in the future, but those would, if they happen, obviously be even more grandiose! Again, time will tell."
