The album "Full Moon in st. petersburg" is the audio version of the DVD of the same name. The concert was recorded in saint petersburg, where RAGE were opening for the russian band KIPELOV — a comical situation, nothing to say, but let us be objective: at the present day, RAGE's solo drawing power in russia is no more than club level. Peavy Wagner placed absolute emphasis on the band's latest studio release, which came out two months before the concert — a total of 15 tracks from "Speak of the Dead." The first eight constitute the Lingua Mortis suite. In essence, the musicians presented the album in its entirety, since the Suite Lingua Mortis was performed from start to finish, plus four more songs from the disc were played. From the entire remaining repertoire of the German band — namely fifteen studio albums — only five compositions were performed. To be precise, these were "Enough is Enough" and "Baby, I'm Your Nightmare" from "Trapped!" (1992), "Sent By The Devil" from "Black In Mind" (1995), "Don't Fear The Winter" — the sole track referencing RAGE's '80s output and the album "Perfect Man" (during which there was a brief sing-along with the audience), and the slightly-over-one-hour performance was crowned by "Higher Than The Sky" from "End Of All Days" (1996), with which Peavy has been closing the band's shows for many years. Strangely enough, the audience sang along quite enthusiastically to it. Now about the suite itself — there is absolutely nothing to fault. The orchestral parts were pre-recorded, yet at the same time the musicians performed their parts simply brilliantly. Let us not forget that RAGE is a three-piece; the slightest mistake or lack of cohesion would immediately show, but the musicians' professionalism is at a tremendous height and this does not happen.
Additionally, the disc features several instructional tracks from Victor Smolski, but of course they are more presentable in the DVD version. Moreover, the DVD format offers the opportunity to see the band's laser show. As a live album, the disc is interesting mainly as a showcase for the new album, and essentially nothing more. The quality cannot be faulted, but the content, honestly, suffers.
