***The three vinyl sides of PERE UBU Live at the Longhorn are as much an indispensable live rock album as Modern Dance is an indispensable studio album. The show consists mainly of material from the Modern Dance album, only rocked out and swinging, more raw-nerved yet seasoned than their studio counterparts. What becomes apparent, especially on repeated listenings is how well-made this music is, how the drama and comedy flows within the modules of each song, how the songs fit together to give an audience an experience that—while sharpened to paranoia and sensitive to harsh realities—is as ineffable as it is concrete. Released on CD and 3-sided double-LP vinyl.
