Reviews and Comments
'LIVE! LIVE! LIVE!' is Beige Banquet's first full-band recording and captures the high-energy, high-volume live sound that has become a feature of the band’s live output.
The album features songs from the previous two releases: 'Beta' and 'S/T', in addition to two brand new tracks, and documents the Beige Banquet live set from early 2022, which saw the band play a string of dates around the UK and a tour across northern France. Building on the first two releases, 'LIVE! LIVE! LIVE!' is the first recording that captures the band's expansion into a 5-piece, and exhibits a powerful and dynamic sound that sits apart from the sparse and anxious sensibilities produced in Brierley's DIY bedroom studio. Tracks from 'Beta' and 'S/T' remain the same but 'LIVE! LIVE! LIVE!' includes different arrangements and stylistic additions that showcase each member's musical personality – the subtle interplay between instruments underpins the band's live performance.
Recorded at Act Cool Records, in a live room built specifically for live sessions, in-house engineer Lollo Veronese set out to capture the band at their most raucous and energetic. By turning the amps up and allowing the sounds to bleed, Lollo captured the exhilaration of the live experience, inviting the listener to get closer to the band. The album was mixed by Beige Banquet's Tom Brierley and mastered by Mikey Young.
