Photographed on March 9, 2020, at 1720 in Los Angeles, this frame captures Dennis Lyxzén during Refused’s final concert before the COVID-19 pandemic halted international touring.

Utilizing a slow-shutter long exposure, the camera tracked movement across the stage, dragging ambient light fixtures into bright arcs wrapping around Lyxzén. The setlist balanced early post-hardcore tracks from The Shape of Punk to Come with newer material.
