The ninth edition of our 'Live in a Dive' series captures face to face blasting through 12 songs from their storied career in just 39 minutes. 2016's Protection was the band's most blistering album yet, which Live in a Dive perfectly captures in "Bent but Not Broken," "Double Crossed," and "I Won't Say I'm Sorry." The live recording also pulls from the 1992 classic Don't Turn Away as well as Face to Face, Reactionary, How to Ruin Everything, and Laugh Now, Laugh Later. face to face's lengthy discography could've easily filled a live double album; but to keep it concise, the band selected highlights from their three-night stand at Brooklyn's St. Vitus in early 2019, 12 songs that fit neatly on one vinyl album. Live in a Dive is a stark reminder that face to face remains a force, even as they approach their 30th anniversary.
