Burning Japan Live 1999
Burning Japan Live 1999 is a live album from Swedish melodic death metal band Arch Enemy, released on 5 May 2000 through Dream On Records. It first came out in Japan only, but fans elsewhere wanted it badly enough that it was given a worldwide release later the same year.
It arrived between two studio records, Burning Bridges (1999) and Wages of Sin (2001), so it catches the band at a point when their catalogue was still young and growing. For anyone who knows the early albums from the studio versions, it's a chance to hear that material played on stage, and a handy snapshot of Arch Enemy before the later chapters of their career.
