Refuge—a special band reuniting three members from the "Golden Era" (1988–1994) of Rage, the titans of German metal—returned to Japan for the first time in three years, touring in support of their surprise debut album, *Solitary Men*!
This release features a complete recording of their February 19, 2019, Osaka show, captured with superb, ultra-high audio quality that rivals a soundboard mix—delivering immense power and a vivid sense of presence!
The sound is absolutely fantastic, perfectly recreating the excitement of the live show with rich, realistic vocals and instrumentation, plus a flawless stereo image. The atmosphere and "live feel" are simply irresistible! Naturally, it has undergone the meticulous mastering characteristic of the Sylph label, resulting in an outstanding release that is guaranteed to get you fired up!
As a bonus, the disc also includes a 50-minute performance by Tri-State Corner—featuring a special guest appearance where current Rage drummer "Lucky" takes on vocals and current Refuge member Chris handles the drums!
The setlist is a dynamic, contemporary mix featuring tracks from the *Solitary Men* album—such as "Summer's Winter" and "Mind Over Matter"—alongside classic early-era songs!
The set includes "The Pit and the Pendulum" and "Firestorm," tracks that were notably absent from the 2018 tour!
While Manni's guitar playing lacked a bit of spark during the previous tour, this time he delivers a performance that is razor-sharp—a true, full-fledged comeback! While the turnout may have been modest, the band—led by Peavy’s masterful MC skills—delivered an energetic, no-holds-barred performance that whipped the crowd into a frenzy; the sense of unity during the massive sing-alongs made for a truly superb show!
This scorching, 100-minute set—packed with nothing but top-tier killer tracks—is an absolute must-listen for fans!
Combined with the set from Tri-State Corner, get ready to fully immerse yourself in a thrilling, two-and-a-half-hour German metal extravaganza!
Brought to you by the Sylph label with stunning cover art and pristine sound quality, this is the definitive release to relive the Osaka show—an essential memorial item for any fan!
