4 stars One of the last Ruins (as duo) concert release, recorded in China. Usual bass/drums (with plenty of vocals this time) very explosive ,energetic and high tech music.

Comparing with other Ruins recordings, this album attracts me its less brutal and more funny and light atmosphere. Compositions are from different years, but all them sound not so sharp,dark or heavy, with bigger then often improv element. It's obviously musicians enjoy their playing there.

It doesn't mean music is pleasant or easy accessible there. For everyone not familiar with Ruins (or other Japanese brutal avant prog) it's better just try to imagine rhythm section (duo) only without any melodic instruments, playing high octane controlled cacophony. Pay for this album if you feel you're ready for such experience only.

For others - this is better than average Ruins album, listen it!
