595 is the second live album released by American indie rock band Karate, released on October 8, 2007 on Southern Records. It was originally recorded on May 5, 2003.[1] The album, along with the rest of the band's discography, was reissued in 2021 by The Numero Group.[2]
Karate formed in 1993 and released seven albums before disbanding in 2005. Throughout their time together, the band allowed sound technicians to record their shows and sent them to the band afterwards, receiving dozens of recordings in varying qualities. A recording of their 595th concert in Leuven, Belgium on May 5, 2003 stood out to them as their favorite live performance,[3] as it was both in extremely high quality and a great performance. In 2007, the band decided to release the live album officially as their first fully official live album (they released Concerto al Barchessone Vecchio in 2003, but it is partially unofficial).
