In the wake of Metal Church's artistically successful comeback album Masterpeace, Nuclear Blast issued Live, a concert album recorded in 1986 while the band was touring in support of their second album, The Dark. As such, it features the original lineup and much of the most popular material from the group's first two albums, as well as the odd cover tossed in for variety. It's not essential, but it is an interesting that fans will probably want to hear.
