Cegvera Release Live Bootleg on LSDR Records
I’m a big fan of bands doing you-come-here-we-go-there tour trades. In 2017, Vinnum Sabbathi, whose members also stand at the helm of LSDR Records, hit the UK to tour with Cegvera. In 2018, it was Cegvera touring Mexico with Vinnum Sabbathi. They also released a split (review here) late last year through LSDR and would seem at some point to have begun to share Gerardo Arias between both bands, so clearly it’s an association that goes further than simply swapping shows. But all the better, really. The tighter the bands are, the more likely they are to get out together, and clearly it’s a productive partnership on all fronts.
To wit, LSDR Records has been hosting a series of live releases simply titled Live Bootleg, and Cegvera‘s Live Bootleg: Cegvera (Palíndromo) is the latest of them. Recorded while the band was on tour in Mexico this past June, it’s a solid set that showcases their heavy instrumentalism and penchant for atmospherics, captured at Palindromo in Guadalajara at what sounds like it was a pretty killer show. It’s a name-your-price download, so clearly the band and label are just trying to get the music heard by as many people as possible, and I can think of few missions more noble than that.
