Livequake is the first live album by the progressive Italian band Eldritch, recorded at Music Street Club in Pisa.

Contents

Metal Hammer Germany wrote that the song selection was a good testament to the band's development and "metamorphosis" over the years. The sound was good too, putting "many a major production to shame in terms of crisp sound and authentically captured atmosphere". Even the bonus material on the DVD was worth watching. [1] Wrote Vampster  [ de ], the entire set consisted of "a tight, consistently high-quality performance from beginning to end". At the same time, it lacked "any truly exceptional moments" and contained little new for listeners familiar with the band. [2]

Powermetal.de  [ de ] thought the recording showed a band in "top form", playing "with great energy". However, the audience reactions did not become noticeable until disc 2. [3] Metal Temple detracted for the frontman "way too often" calling the audience by "the term 'motherfuckers'". [4]
