Two CDs. Front 242's final live chapter, recorded in their hometown at AB Brussels during their farewell tour after more than 40 years of shaping EBM. After more than four decades of (re)defining electronic body music, Front 242 conclude their live journey with "Black Out", the definitive final live recording of their farewell tour - spanning over 40 performances across 6 months in Europe and the USA. Recorded at AB Brussels (Ancienne Belgique) in January 2025, in their Belgian hometown, this album captures the intensity, precision, and raw energy that have defined Front 242's live performances for generations. "It is with a heavy mix of emotion that we close this great adventure, some 40 years in the making. We realize that ending our journey at this time, when we are still vibrant and full of energy is how the band should be remembered. We are excited to share these meaningful final performances with our wonderful fans who have been with us through it all", the band wrote when announcing their final tour. "Black Out" is released as a double-CD digipak featuring 3 exclusive bonus tracks ("MasterHit", "Soul Manager", "No Shuffle"). Marking a historic moment, the album also includes the first official releases of several new tracks the band had introduced live over recent years ("Generator", "Fix It", "Hide & Seek"). For "Black Out", Front 242 members Patrick Codenys, Jean-Luc de Meyer and Richard23 are joined on stage by Tim Kroker on drums, with mixing and production handled in the studio by David Baboulis from the band SOLDOUT. Spanning the full Front 242 repertoire - from early foundational cuts to genre-defining anthems - "Black Out" stands as both a powerful farewell and a final testament to the band's uncompromising vision.
