Alive in Oslo (fully titled The Day of Total Armageddon Holocaust – Alive in Oslo) is a live album by Australian unblack metal band Horde, released by Veridon Music in April 2007. The album features a live concert by the band, recorded at Nordic Fest in Oslo, Norway on 3 November 2006, during which nearly all the band's material was performed except for the tracks "Drink From the Chalice of Blood," "Weak, Feeble, Dying Antichrist," and "Mine Heart Doth Beseech Thee (O Master)." It also features a bonus DVD of the same name containing video footage of the show. Three songs from the live album later appeared as bonus tracks on the remastered version of Horde's only studio album, Hellig Usvart (1994), released by Metal Mind Productions in May 2008.[1]

Simon Rosén, the frontman for the Swedish metal band Crimson Moonlight, and Bengt Olsson, Håvar Wormdahl and Karl Fredrik Lind from the Norwegian extreme metal band Drottnar, perform on the album in addition to Horde's founder Jayson Sherlock.
