Background

On May 7, 2016, Russian Circles headlined at a festival in Zottegem, Belgium. Unbeknownst to the band, the show was being professionally recorded. In explaining why this worked out for the best, bassist Brian Cook said, “Going into a show with the plan of documenting it on record was never really something we were too excited about. Too much pressure. Good shows aren’t a matter of playing everything perfectly; it’s a matter of creating a good vibe.”
