Rating: If you are not yet familiar with Pain of Salvation, then this acoustic live might be the way to discover that everything you have heard about them from friends or read in magazines is not gossip or wasted compliments but rather the truth.
Daniel Gildenlow proves to be the helmsman of this ship of modern pirates capable of overwhelming with dark and, at times, aggressive pieces and enchanting with dreamlike melodies, albeit always sad or disillusioned.
His crew, on the other hand, turns out to be excellent. The management of the choirs, recreated almost better than on the album, is perfect and from an instrumental point of view, there is not a single flaw.
If you have known PoS for a while, then all you have to do is take out your wallet, check that you have about twenty euros, and quickly run to buy this little gem that will surely provide you with a delightful hour.

All the sensitivity and heart of this combo really shine through, presenting itself in a completely new and different guise.
Listening to 'Ashes' made me jump so light and void of all the negative atmosphere present in the original version.

"An album with great songs, excessive and redundant arrangements and zero (I say zero!) sense."
"Daniel Gildenlow is a genius and he knows it very well, and it breaks my heart to hear how he struts by singing in 4 different styles in 2 seconds of a song."

"An album with great songs, redundant and exaggerated arrangements and zero (I say zero!) sense; a way, in my opinion, to fill a time gap while waiting for a new work."
"Daniel Gildenlow is a genius and he knows it very well and it breaks my heart to hear him show off singing 4 different styles in 3 seconds of a song."
