Juno Reactor put on the best live show I've ever seen, bar none... but this was back in 2001 or 2002 when they were touring with Amampondo and Medicine Drum in support of Shango. From what I know, things have gone even more concert-oriented since then. In other words, do NOT expect a set of dance music. There will be vocalists, real instruments, wild costumes, a sense of theatre, etc. They probably won't play any classic tunes aside from Pistolero. I think what they do is awesome but you really have to get out of the EDM mindset to appreciate Juno Reactor these days...
As for the new album? I don't think it hits the mark but you have to hand it to Watkins; he continues to incorporate wildly disparate styles into his own personal vision of music.
