As Time Explodes : Live Album (2026)

"Originally released on vinyl for Record Store Day in April 2025, the release in other formats clarifies how, in more ways than one, Neil Young’s live album with the Chrome Hearts is a mirror image of last year’s studio album with that band. The dramatic crescendos that lead into the centerpiece of 1977’s "American Stars 'n Bars" suggest this composition has never rung so true as a simple (not silly) love song for the man who wrote and released it nearly half a decade ago. Such is that depth of emotion it corresponds to the absorbing nature of the sonics overseen by producer Lou Adler with Young and his long-time "Volume Dealer" collaborator Niko Bolas. Such is the palpable impact; it permeates virtually the entire seventy-some minutes of "As Time Explodes"." (Glide Magazine)
