Fresh off performing at the Can Festival in Zhoushan in China, Long Distance Calling has released a live rendition of ‘Out There’ as their latest single, taken from the forthcoming Live At Lichtburg album, due out on 5th December via earMUSIC.
Following the intensity of previous single, ‘Kamilah’, ‘Out There’ reveals a contrasting side of the band: expansive, dynamic, and filled with cinematic tension. Gradually unfolding into a breathtaking piece of instrumental storytelling.
The accompanying live video translates this visually – the glowing stage lights of the Lichtburg, the band’s focused performance, and an audience completely immersed in every note.
You can listen to both singles here and check out the videos here at RAMzine.
Live At Lichtburg is a new live album and film that captures Long Distance Calling at a defining milestone in their career: a sold-out performance at the historic Lichtburg Cinema in Essen, Germany, in front of more than 1,200 devoted fans.
Since their debut in 2007, the Münster-based quartet — David Jordan (Guitars), Florian Füntmann (Guitars), Jan Hoffmann (Bass), and Janosch Rathmer (Drums) — has become a modern benchmark for progressive and cinematic instrumental rock. With Live At Lichtburg they present not only the biggest headline show of their career but also a unique reimagining of their catalogue, enriched by strings and brass to expand their trademark sound into bold new dimensions.
The concert brought together highlights from across their discography, with a particular focus on the acclaimed albums Eraser and Avoid The Light. The result is a breathtaking performance that moves effortlessly between intimate, delicate passages and towering walls of sound
Each subsequent single will also be presented with its own live video, giving fans the chance to relive the atmosphere and energy of the evening piece by piece in the run-up to the full release.
The release will be available in multiple formats — 2LP gatefold heavyweight 180g + Blu-ray and CD + Blu-ray digipak — offering fans both the audio and visual essence of the night – It can be ordered here.
Tracks featured are: ‘Enter: Death Box’, ‘Blades’, ‘Kamilah’, ‘Giants Leaving’, ‘Hazard’, ‘Immunity’, ‘500 Years’, ‘Eraser’, ‘Apparitions’, ‘Black Paper Planes’, ‘359’, ‘Sundown Highway’, ‘Out There’ and ‘Metulsky Curse Revisited’.
