"Playgrounds" is primarily a live album,the sounds of the instruments should feel as if they have been played on stage, which is more opaque and subtle compared with studio disks, and why this their first live cd differs from most of the live sounding ones is that its altered to be quite similar to a studio one's. This probably means that the adjustments were completely absent, or that otherwise, in the worst case, the intervention of post-production has been minimal; a choice? This is consistent with the nature of German music and especially in tune with public taste,a traditionalist who follows them. Clarity and truthfulness should be particularly appreciated by listening skills, from one who loves the complex harmonies and instrumental melodies discrete and enchanting, in short, the turbo-blender branded fan(Dream Theater) prefers the more human and less artifact of the (Rush) Live Sound. It is precisely to the heights touched by that Canadian band that would go the (Sieges Even), who tried at least to sound live, only to do that in a intermediate way. The songs "live"have many qualities, but their light shine in the studio versions so you should listen to them first before you dive into these "Live Versions" from this new release "Playgrounds"
