Therion - Live Gothic Review

Monday August 25, 2008
Live Gothic is a double CD and 1 DVD set. There are 22 songs spread over the two discs, and the DVD is the visual version of that same 2007 concert in Warsaw, Poland. The setlist focuses primarily on 2007's Gothic Kabbalah, but they cover a lot of other material as well. There are songs going back to 1996's Theli. Tracks from 1998's Vovin, 1999's Crowning Of Atlantis, 2000's Deggial, 2001's Secret Of The Runes, 2004's Sirius B and 2004's Lemuria are also featured.

The band sounds great, with thick riffs and the orchestral majesty Therion is known for. The vocalists for the concert were Lori Lewis (Aesma Daeva), Katarina Lilja (Sobre Nocturne), Mats Leven (who has since left the band) and Snowy Shaw (King Diamond, Mercyful Fate).
