Sweden’s peerless metal titans, Soilwork, toured Japan in support of their 10th album, *The Ride Majestic*! This release captures the full performance from February 24, 2016, in Osaka—part of a tour that marked their first standalone Japanese shows in eight years—featuring superb, ultra-high-quality sound that delivers immense power and an immersive live atmosphere!
There are absolutely no intrusive screams or hand-clapping from nearby audience members! The recording comes to life with a raw, ultra-realistic, and fantastic sound mix that is perfectly balanced. It fully captures the sense of unity within the venue and realistically reproduces the very atmosphere of the show! This is an absolute masterpiece—guaranteed to get your blood pumping!

The live performance is a powerhouse affair, featuring not only tracks from their latest release but also high-speed early classics! The venue stays fired up from start to finish amidst a whirlwind of circle pits. Markus, who stepped in to replace the departed Ola Flink, delivers a fantastic, high-energy performance—and his striking resemblance to his predecessor is a nice touch! Frontman Björn is in top form, effortlessly switching between growls, shouts, and clean vocals; his commanding stage presence truly befits a master of the genre. With a satisfying 90-minute setlist, this is a must-hear for any fan! Brought to you by the Sylph label with stunning artwork and superb sound quality, this definitive recording captures the full intensity of the Osaka show. It is an essential memorial item for fans!
