OBITUARY
Frozen Alive DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

This is a 2004 concert from this band and what a concert it is. The band rips through a full 23 song set with material from almost all of their releases. The sound and camera work is superb and you almost feel like your in the front row. The band also sound tight as f_ck and this will please any fan of death metal. Extras includes more videos, interviews with the band and other goodies. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


SINISTER
Prophecies Denied DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

A pure death metal masterpiece. 160 minutes of 100% real death metal. This is from a 2006 concert from Poland. 15 tracks here and tons of extras as you get almost 3 hours of music. The sound is great and the camera work is A plus. You get bootleg videos from 5 other shows as well as a band interview. Buy or die. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


GRAVE
Enraptured DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

I can't take these DVD's anymore. Grave will slay, crush, maim and destroy you. 18 tracks of low tuned, brutal death metal as only this band can do. The production is perfect down to the last bloody death metal riff. This is not for the weak minded and blows away all those groove death metal bands. The cameras lets you feel as though you are there. You also get bonus videos as well. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


METAL DARKSIDE II
The Deadly Disturbed DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

Jasmine ST. Claire interviews Shadow's Fall. Exodus, Suffocation and a few other bands. The interviews are basic questions and while Jasmine looks hot, I didn't find the interviews anything of value. The band videos are kinda cool, but they need to get Jasmine some better questions to ask these bands. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


IMPALER
House Band At The Funeral Parlor
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

This has 2 shows from the band, one old and one new. The show from 1984 is raw, way raw, but it shows that the band are not some fly by night project as they are still around over 20 yrs later. The leather and spikes and blood look was the big thing back in the day. There is also some cable show videos and interviews as well. This shock rock/metal band has been around a long time and I really liked the old stuff, but overall the DVD was a nice view. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


APPETITE FOR DECONSTRUCTION
Deconstruction Tour 2004/2005
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

This is a DVD of some kind of tour that goes on over in Europe that looks similar to the Van Warped Tour that we get over here. There is a ton of bands on here and skate boarding stuff, etc. Me personally I am not into skate boarding and most of the bands weren't my cup of tea as they are that style of hardcore with all that groove stuff and to me ever band sort sounds the same after a while. If your into bands like Pennywise, Anti Flag, and Autumn to Ashes you'll love this, but is just not for me as skate boarding punk doesn't fit in with me. Info: http://www.mvdvisual.com


CATAMEDIA
Bringing The Cold To Poland DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

I thought for some reason this was going to be one of those goth doom bands, but how wrong I was. I have never heard of this band, but let me tell you, they place a vicious brand of speedy death metal that didn't disappoint me. They might have brought the cold, but they also brought plenty of speed and power. The camera work is top notch and the sound is incredible and this band sound tight as fuck. You get a full 12 song concert from this band and plenty of extra goodies such as: recording sessions and old demo stuff and an interview and this baby clocks in at 2 hours. A Dvd and band worth checking out. Info: http://www.musicvideodistributors.com


ROCK RELIEF
Live In Concert DVD
(MVD)
by Chris Forbes

This was a concert that was put together to help with the hurricane relief fund down in Florida. This was a classic rock night as you got Loverboy, Eddie Money, Twister Sister, Rick Derringer, Mark Farner from Grand Funk Railroad, and Dickey Betts of The Allman Brothers. I didn't like Michael Bolton who was on here, but his 1st 2 albums are kick ass AOR rock, which of course he doesn't do any songs from. The other bands still sound good and most have all or most of the original members. Wish Twisted Sister has more than 1 tune on here, but Loverboy and Eddie Money really stole the show for me. Portions of this Dvd will channeled to Musicians For Disaster Relief so buy it and check out a kick ass concert to boot. Info: http://www.mvdb2b.com
