Parkway Drive have released their orchestral performance of Carrion from the Sydney Opera House, the first thing out of Home, Live At The Sydney Opera House, which Epitaph Records puts out on 4 December.

Carrion is from Horizons, the album the band made in 2007, and it is one of the songs that built them. The version here keeps the riff where it was and puts an orchestra underneath it, in a room holding about two thousand seated people rather than the festival fields the band usually works.

The live record runs to twenty tracks across the whole catalogue, among them Prey, Glitch, Horizons, The Void, Crushed, Wild Eyes and Darker Still, with guest turns from Nooky and Jenna McDougall.

The concert has already been through cinemas, which we wrote about when the dates went up: the film of the same night went out on 12 November. The album is what follows it.
