After more than four decades of shaping electronic body music, Front 242 brought their live career to a close with a farewell tour, and Black Out is the final document of it. Recorded in January 2025 at the Ancienne Belgique in their hometown of Brussels, it captures the intensity and precision that made the band's shows legendary.
Patrick Codenys, Jean-Luc De Meyer and Richard23 are joined on stage by Tim Kroker on drums, and the set spans their entire repertoire: "W.Y.H.I.W.Y.G.," "Body to Body," "U-Men," "Quite Unusual," "Welcome to Paradise," "Tragedy for You," "Punish Your Machine" and, of course, "Headhunter." Mixing and production were handled in the studio by David Baboulis.
It also holds the first official releases of "Generator," "Fix It" and "Hide and Seek," newer songs the band refined on stage over their final years. For EBM and industrial fans it is a powerful farewell from one of the genre's founders.
This edition is pressed on two LPs of solid silver vinyl.
