More information: 'Crime Scene‘ was the eleventh studio album and the nineteenth overall, entered various charts after its release, and even reached a remarkable 18th place in the German album charts! This was followed by a fantastic long European tour through eight countries with many sold-out venues.
The album focused on the morbid, the perverse, the evil in the good, the abysses of the human behavior spectrum in all its unpredictable diversity, which sometimes comes across as bizarrely disturbingly conclusive, if you want to explore it.
Conceptually, 'Crime Scene‘ then logically played the central role in the live shows. The entire album was performed – naturally including some extra songs from the band’s history dating back to 1997 – accompanied by a harmonious light show with video clips designed for the respective songs. You could tell how much fun the band had with both the concept and the realization on stage. "With RPWL, the live versions are often different to those in the studio, many parts are much more extended and we often jam live" explains guitarist Kalle Wallner.
The outstanding performance in the Netherlands was filmed: "The Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer was the perfect location – great stage, great lighting, the Dutch temple of prog, so to speak. We’ve been playing there regularly for over twenty years and have a long and very friendly relationship with the venue and the crew" says singer Yogi Lang.
After so many years, there is no sign of RPWL being tired – this is a superb concert played by a superb band!
'True Live Crime‘ contains twelve songs and is released on Blu-ray with Dolby Atmos surround sound, double vinyl, and double CD. It is the band’s twentieth album in total.
Pressed on high quality 140g black vinyl.
Line-up: Yogi Lang - vocals, keyboards / Kalle Wallner - guitars / Markus Grützner - bass / Marc Turiaux - drums
