Fist - Live In Arendal 1987

Legendary cult no-wave/industrial band MUNCH live at Grand Hotel in Arendal on May 15, 1987, in support of the local rock club. Apart from obscure demo material, this is the earliest evidence of their raw live power and the first concert to feature their full line-up.

Recorded directly to reel-to-reel tape, then lost and forgotten for many years, this historic document has finally resurfaced and has been carefully restored and remastered by Lars Årdal, still preserving the authenticity of the original performance.

Ivar Mykland - (lyrics) vocal and electrical pipes
Alf Solbakken - guitar
Rune Bergstø - bass guitar and backing vocals
Rich Nordskog - drums and sampler
Lars Årdal - keyboards
