German metal act Powerwolf has released a dual disc package featuring live recordings from their 2024 performance in Munich.

The concert supports the Wake Up The Wicked album and features cuts from said album, although the title track is notably absent.

Attila Dorn delivers on-stage comments in German throughout the set.

The album kicks off with "Bless 'em With The Blade", a fast-paced song that sets the tone for the night.

Notably, Powerwolf leads with a brand new song, showcasing their confidence in their material and standing at home.

The band also delivers nods to their formative years with "Incense & Iron" and "Army Of The Night".

A notable contrast emerges between traditional heavy metal tracks and more popular-oriented songs like "1589", "Demons Are A Girl's Best Friend", and "Dancing With The Dead".

While old chestnuts may be missing, including "Make No Mistake There's a Strong/Purposeful Comedic Element in the Live Antics," fans can still appreciate both sides of Powerwolf's sound.

Standout moments include the big anthem sing-along "Sinners Of The Seas" versus vicious follow-up "Amen & Attack", which features a crowd-aided chorus.

The concert also showcases Powerwolf's ability to engage the audience, particularly during their four-part ditty in "Armata Strigoi".

A notable low point is the brief lull that occurs before the encore, featuring a piano-accompanied ballad and new compositions that have yet to gain emotional gravitas.

The band concludes with three established hits from their vampiric werewolf backstory era: "Sanctified With Dynamite", "We Drink Your Blood", and "Werewolves Of Armenia".

Fans may also want to investigate the more exclusive formats, which offer a second bonus concert featuring different running orders.
