Listen to Long Season Live

One of the greatest live performances I've ever seen. The concert was called "a farewell to men", a send off for the bassist moving on to different music. What resulted was the band giving it their all, near perfect live recording, massive song structure changes, improving an already near perfect catalog of songs in ways you couldn't think of.

However, the bassist ended up staying in the band. The album is still called Farewell To Men because lead vocalist Shinji Sato died of chronic health conditions 3 months after this concert. The way Shinji is performing, it felt like he knew it. The concert feels like a divine gift, as if Sato was sent here by the Gods to perform that concert and couldn't leave until he had. Amazing album
