This Is Who We Are (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This DVD shows some great behind the scenes stuff with the band and some good live performances, but there are no music videos or a "Jimmy Kimmel Live" performance as the back cover led me to believe. This disc is just so you can see what you're missing if you haven't been to one of their shows, but I would recommend it to a true fan.

Apocalyptica: The Life Burns Tour (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have followed this band since their first major lable release of metallica on four cellos. That was great in and of itself, but inquisition symphony, thier second release just blew that away by leaps and bounds, and had the beginnings of great original work. Now 10 years later, and 500+ shows, many of them sold out, and millions of albums later, this and is still very fresh, and as loud as any of the thrash metal bands out there. This video showcases an amazing display of endurance the way they speed through riffs that were originally played on guitar on a giant cello. Apocalyptica is a showcase of excellence in musicianship, and features what should be featured, the music, and not a lot of words and vocals that can distract from awsome musicianship. The show is around 90 minutes long, and just packed with thier best cuts.
But wiat, there's more. For those of you who just have to have lyrics, there are 8 videos, all of which have words sung by several well known artists from Guano Apes, Soulfly, Bullet for My Valentine, and HIM. There is also the making of repressed, and a us tour mini documentary. This is a must have for any apocalyptica fan, and a taste for us fans into what releases are to come in the future.

The Cure - Festival 2005 (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well, I'm not one to normally complain about anything The Cure puts out but this DVD could have been much better. The song selection is overall very good, mixing songs from every studio release except for TIB and WMS, I believe. They play heavy on material from the era when Porl was previously in the band. As a four-piece, the songs that normally require keyboards are unique here with Porl filling in the keyboard parts on guitar and there has been no other "official" live releases for more than a few songs on this DVD such as "Shiver and Shake", "M", "The Baby Screams" or "Signal to Noise." I can't complain about the sound quality, although the packaging did not indicate that that the 5.1 surround was DTS only and not Dolby. I prefer DD over DTS but the stereo surround mix was fine. The fact that the press release and the packaging do warn you that the video is essentially of the guerilla/audience/amateur quality still does not prepare you for the actual picture quality. My God, I just could not continue to watch the DVD. It hurt my eyes. Going for the crappy camera/grainy out of focus quality angle was a poor choice. The cheesy blurring and double images nonense was worse than watching an old Black Sabbath video on VH1 Classic. I've got better quality (even today after multiple viewings) of a VHS recording of The Cure I made 15 years ago from a concert from Germany that MTV aired! This DVD is just plain unwatchable. I will simply turn off the video and listen to the audio. This only makes the absolute need for re-releasing "In Orange" and "Show" onto DVD sooner rather than later. Too bad. This could have been a much better release for Cure fans.
