Live at Dunk! Fest is the second live album by American post-metal band Russian Circles, released digitally and on vinyl through Sargent House.[1] The album was recorded on May 7, 2016 at a performance in Zottegem, Belgium.[2] This release marks the band's first live album.[3][4]

Background[edit]

On May 7, 2016, Russian Circles headlined at a festival in Zottegem, Belgium.[5] Unbeknownst to the band, the show was being professionally recorded. In explaining why this worked out for the best, bassist Brian Cook said, “Going into a show with the plan of documenting it on record was never really something we were too excited about. Too much pressure. Good shows aren’t a matter of playing everything perfectly; it’s a matter of creating a good vibe.”[2]
