Yeah, but the question actually is: Which band nowadays doesn't do overdubs?
As already being said, sometimes this only refers to changes concerning the volume of the crowd, while the music itself is untouched. Of course, on the other hand there are often major changes - I remember hearing that one of the singers from the german band
Die Ärzte re-recorded his complete vocal performance from one of their live albums in the studio. I do understand it when someone sees it as "cheating" when such major changes are made and when this is the case, I really ask myself what's the point in doing a "live" album. But as far as Strapping are concerned; re-doing some parts here and there... Face it, it's nothing exceptional at all.
