│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ For myself, the mighty Pagan's Mind, along with ║ │
│║ Symphony X, are the best progressive metal bands ║ │
│║ to come on the scene since the arrival of Dream ║ │
│║ Theater. Sure, there are countless others whose ║ │
│║ music I adore, but there is something special ║ │
│║ about these two, for my ears anyway. While we ║ │
│║ wait for SX to release a live DVD, Pagan's ║ │
│║ Mind's is here and available in three different ║ │
│║ versions, this one being the pick, but with ║ │
│║ limited numbers, 1000 hand numbered in fact so ║ │
│║ you better be quick to place an order. What do ║ │
│║ you get? Well this a Pagan's Mind fans wet ║ │
│║ dream, there's the exciting live CD and DVD, ║ │
│║ plus a bonus DVD with plenty of extra footage, ║ │
│║ an autographed photo and even a Pagan's Mind ║ │
│║ guitar pick, all contained in some alluring ║ │
│║ packaging. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Live Equation of course takes part of its name ║ │
│║ from Pagan's Mind last studio release, 2007's ║ │
│║ progressive metal blast fest God's Equation. ║ │
│║ Pagan's Mind perform their classics on this live ║ │
│║ release with ease, dishing out spirited ║ │
│║ performances to an enthusiast crowd of fans. The ║ │
│║ first track to get their heads banging and fists ║ │
│║ pumping is "Gods Equation", as ace guitarist ║ │
│║ Jorn Viggo Lofstad kicks it into gear. Jorn also ║ │
│║ stars on instrumental "Coming Home/Exploring ║ │
│║ Life" along with his band mates as they proceed ║ │
│║ to rip it up. Vocalist Nils K. Rue's commanding ║ │
│║ voice sounds marvelous, along with Steinar ║ │
│║ Krokmo's masterful bass playing, Ronny Tegner's ║ │
│║ dashing keyboards and the robust strokes of ║ │
│║ Stian L. Kristoffersen as he proceeds to pummel ║ │
│║ his drums, they show why they are one of the ║ │
│║ best, not just in the studio. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ DVD number two starts with two more live ║ │
│║ recordings, three different tracks from ║ │
│║ Progpower and two from Ibsenhuset, Skien ║ │
│║ including a stellar performance of the fantastic ║ │
│║ "Osiris' Triumphant Return", much to my delight. ║ │
│║ There's even a look backstage with rehearsals of ║ │
│║ four songs, another very cool addition is ║ │
│║ footage from a performance back in the year 2000 ║ │
│║ with the original PM line-up, this and more ║ │
│║ amongst the other additional footage. All up ║ │
│║ Live Equation is quite simply essential viewing ║ │
│║ for Pagan's Mind followers. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The DVD will be released in three different ║ │
│║ versions: an audio-CD and -DVD ║ │
│║ containing footage/recording of PAGAN'S MIND's ║ │
│║ November 1, 2008 show at ║ │
│║ Rockefeller Music Hall in Oslo; a double DVD ║ │
│║ with the Rockefeller show as well ║ │
│║ as a disc with bonus material; and a ║ │
│║ limited-to-1000-copies hand-numbered ║ │
│║ three-disc version with the audio CD, the two ║ │
