From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Live on the Edge of Forever is the first live album by progressive metal band Symphony X, which was recorded on their European tour in 2000 and 2001. The album starts like their previously most recent studio effort V: The New Mythology Suite, but whereas "The Death of Balance" normally switches to "Lacrymosa", it now switches to "Candlelight Fantasia" from The Divine Wings of Tragedy album.
After that, many recent classics are played, like the neo-classical "Smoke and Mirrors" and the epic "The Divine Wings of Tragedy". No tracks of the first two albums are performed.
