Review: Metallica
Metallica The Videos: 1989-2004 Warner Brothers Street: 12.05.06 Metallica fans of old know that this DVD will not fit their liking. Considering Metallica didn’t come out with a music video until the And Justice For All album, their fourth record. That said video for the song, “One,” though has stood the test of time as
Review: Meat Beat Manifesto: Travelogue Live ’05
Meat Beat Manifesto: Travelogue Live ’05 Producer Jack Dangers/Editor Ben Stokes MVD Visual Street: 11.21.06 Big-beat pioneers Meat Beat Manifesto and their eminent racks of electronics were in town last year. Did you sleep on it? Unfortunately, there is no way to properly replicate the once-in-a-blue-moon multimedia experience of the current MBM quartet (featuring spectacular
Review: The Harry Smith Project Live
The Harry Smith Project Live Shout Factory Street: 11.07.06 This is one of the most incredible intersections of classic American folk music, passionate, flavorful musicianship and a who’s-who lineup of underground cult heroes ever. The songs featured are selections from the Grammy-award-winning Anthology of American Folk Music (1952), assembled by Harry Smith, groundbrreaking filmmaker and
Review: Guns N’ Roses
Guns N’ Roses DVD Collector’s Box Chrome Dreams Street 01.30 This box set consists of two separate British-made documentaries – Axl Rose-The Prettiest Star, and Guns N Roses- Sex N’ Drugs N’ Rock N’ Roll. Both films are completely unauthorized, and neither of them feature any GNR music or recent band interviews. The box set
Review: Catamenia
Catamenia Bringing the Cold to Poland Metal Mind Street: 01.16 Why this band has a live concert DVD is beyond me everything they do is pretty substandard and boring. Obviously filmed in Poland the band tries hard to even muster up a response from the crowd. The production is off the keyboards come off way
Review: Bullet for My Valentine
Bullet for My Valentine Live at the Brixton Academy Trustkill Street: 12.19.06 With only an EP and a full length CD out I was surprised to see a DVD release from Bullet for My Valentine. Nevertheless, the guys on the hinge of major success have followed in the footsteps of many and choose to showcase
Review: Attack Force
Attack Force Michael Keusch Sony Home Entertainment Street: 12.06.06 I’m not sure where to begin describing a movie this crappy. I suppose we should begin with the title; Attack Force. I’m struggling to recall a more generic collision of two words used in countless action film titles. They might as well have called it ‘Explosion
Review: All the King’s Men
All the King’s Men Steve Zaillian Columbia Pictures Street: 12.06.2006 Based on Robert Warren’s book which is based upon the life of Louisiana politician Huey Long All the King’s Men is a well executed but sometimes overdone vehicle for Sean Penn to flex his southern diction as Willie Stark. The film follows Stark from a
Review: 1966 World Tour
1966 World Tour Joel Gilbert Highway 61 Entertainment Street: 06.06.2006 From the look of the cover you might think this movie is about Bob Dylan’s 1966 world tour. You might think that you’re going to see and hear some of the tour or even some of Bob Dylan. You might expect an interesting glimpse
Review: Marvel Comic Book Creator
Marvel Comic Book Creator Planetwide Games Reviewed On: PC Street: 11.2006 I can’t tell you how many times I have cursed my un-artistic hands and their complete lack of cool comic-book creating abilities. Let’s face it, my life is in need of some spicing up and what better way to embellish it than to cast myself
Review: Lost Planet
Lost Planet Capcom Reviewed On: Xbox 360 Street: 01.07 The console wars are raging which means good news for us gamers. Lost Planet is the latest from Capcom, one of the premier game developers on the planet. Not only does Capcom deliver with Lost Planet but they have also elevated the action shooter to another
Review: Killzone: Liberation
Killzone: Liberation Guerrilla/SCEA Reviewed On: PSP Street: 11-06 It’s hard to say what exactly it is that makes Killzone so much fun to play. The graphics are just above average, the game play can be frustrating and the camera angles actually make some parts of the game much harder than they should be. But nevertheless
