Brutus Line Up Autumn Release For 'Live In Ghent' Album

Brutus have announced a live album.
'Live In Ghent' is scheduled to arrive on October 23 via Hassle Records. As the title suggests, it was recorded during the Belgium post-hardcore trio's show at Handelsbeurs Concert Hall in their home city in May 2019 in front of 750 fans. The band revealed how the album came to fruition:
"When the real world went into lockdown, early March 2020, a year of live music disappeared before our eyes. Going on tour, playing festivals, watching bands, it's all gone. It was as hard for us as it has been for everybody involved in live music. As a remedy, we took the time to look back on what we had already done and collected the footage we had of our previous shows. Painful and healing at the same time. That’s when we stumbled upon the recordings of our show at Handelsbeurs in Ghent, May 2019. A hometown show we fully recorded and filmed after a period of touring, in front of all our family and friends.
"We know it’s just a recording and not even close to the real feeling we had on stage or the energy we got back from the crowd in the room, but looking back, almost a year later, we feel absolutely proud about that show."
