A show from the Rock Hard Christmas fests with Dismember/Death/Cannibal Corpse/Pestilence. This is from the same night as the Death "Baptized in Blood" bootleg. Stuttgart is mentioned in the stage banter, so the show is definitely Dec. 19.

While I think I got most of it right, please note that I'm not 100% sure about all my tracklisting corrections since so many of Napalm's early tunes were just short grind blasts, and the bootlegger didn't index every song seperately. There is a short drum burst beginning track 10 that may have been intended to be "You Suffer?," but since I couldn't hear any vocals and that song only lasts a few seconds anyway, I haven't noted it above. Please let me know if any corrections need to be made!

There is a noise/sound oddity during 4:26 of track 1, and a break/pause that lasts for a second at 5:51 of track 9.

I can't tell whether it's due more to the recording quality (which is generally okay) or to his accent (though most other times there's no problem understanding him live), but most of Barney's stage banter other than the songtitle introductions is very hard to understand.

Bootleg gives no recording information other than "live in Europe" 1992. "Vielen Dank" and "Danke schön" are used in the stage banter and Barney dedicates "Upward and Uninterested" to Arno(?) and his other "friends from and around Frankfurt," so this is likely from the June 4th show with Obituary and Dismember. Death Enterprises also put out a Obituary boot CD from the show.

The intro is the second half or so of "Discordance."

During the first 2 tracks, there's some sort of music playing in the background at times. You can hear it very clearly at 1:38 of track 2 for a couple seconds while there's a break in Napalm's playing, and that's actually the last time you hear it during the bootleg. I have no idea if this mystery music is actually audio picked up at the gig itself, or if it's the bootlegger's doing/fault--such as residual music from an old tape.

Later CD version of the split bootleg LP. The CD uses a cropped/modified version of the LP artwork (the LP cover had both bands' logos) for one side of the insert. No recording information is given on the CD version at all, but the original LP mentions the Napalm Death side is from "Cardiff - UK 1988." The Feb. 5 date mentioned above is of a known Napalm Death show in Cardiff, but I cannot verify the date.

Sound quality isn't very good, and the silly stage banter is often more fun to listen to than the songs themselves. Terrorizer's "Corporation Pull-In" is mentioned at the end of track 2. Someone says "I want you to bleed for the devil!" in a mock-evil voice at the beginning and end of "The Kill" (a Morbid Angel reference). Before "Deceiver," Lee(?) mentions Jim Plotkin of Regurgitation/O.L.D., thinking he'll like the song. As usual, the live version of "Deceiver" opens with the very beginning of Repulsion's "The Stench of Burning Death" (also mentioned before the song). "Divine Death" is dedicated to Danny Lilker and Jason(?)/Ralph of Regurgitation. Before the song, part of Regurgitation's "Bathrooms Rule" is sung.
