THRESHOLD CONCERT IN PARIS reviews

Specialists/collaborators reviews

Warthur
Originally released via their fan club, Threshold's Concert In Paris is a bit more substantial than their previous live release, Livedelica, weighing in at nearly 54 minutes (Livedelica barely broke 40). As you might expect from a 2001 show, the focus is very much on material from Hypothetical and Clone, though a few cuts from Psychedelicatessen and Wounded Land creep in (leaving Extinct Instinct curiously unrepresented).

The renditions here are, by and large, pretty excellent. Good material shines in the live context; weak material, like Change, has been refined and improved and benefits from a bit more grit. Light and Space turns out to be just as great in a live context as in the studio, and it's no surprise it became as much a cornerstone of Threshold's life repertoire as Paradox had previously.

Paradox is the only overlap here with Livedelica - and of course on that you didn't have Mac on vocals or Johanne on drums, making the rendition here worthwhile in its own right. Likewise, it only has Light and Space, Long Way Home, and Paradox in common with the subsequent Critical Energy release. As such, despite not being as expansive as the latter, it is still a live document of early 2000s Threshold which carves out its own space in the discography, and it also shows the band improving on the already solid live presentation showcased on Livedelica.
