This live recording came shortly after the release of their critically acclaimed album 'Goo' in 1990 and just before 'Dirty' hit the shelves in 1992. 'Dirty' marked a turning point, incorporating a more aggressive sound and gaining commercial traction, largely thanks to tracks like '100%' and 'Youth Against Fascism.'

Their reputation for vibrant performances was solidified around this time, contributing significantly to the band's cult following.
