The long-awaited return performance in Japan! This is a permanently recorded pressing of the live performance from "Sonic Mania," the pre-event for "Summer Sonic 2013 Tokyo," with flawless sound quality comparable to the official live recording! This premium sound quality album features 24-bit digital remastering of a matrix sound source that mixes the IEM source used onstage with the high-quality audience source originally produced by the XAVEL label. Following their surprise reunion in 2012, the band has held reunion shows around the world, some of which have featured IEM matrix sound sources, but this release is the ultimate IEM matrix sound source, on a completely different level. The album perfectly balances the highly stable, noiseless, and natural sounding IEM source with the incredibly wide-ranging, powerful audience source, allowing you to fully enjoy the essence of the "Roses sound" woven together by the four individual personalities of the Reni & Mani rhythm section, John's sharp guitar, and Ian's perfectly balanced and comfortable vocals. It also boasts a superb sense of realism, the essence of a live album, capturing the sing-alongs that erupted at key points with the perfect balance, making it incredibly moving! It will surely bring to life the extraordinary excitement of that late-night night in Makuhari!
