first off, if you found this searching for Front 242 DVDs - move on, nothing to see here... this is not related to the seminal EBM band from Belgium. however, if you like interesting video manipulations then this DVD might be in your future. while some of the segments are rather long and not terribly interesting, it does manage to keep things moving at a decent pace. this is a great video to play on a big screen in a dance club or venue, as it has a lot of good video "atmosphere". some of the really dark, black&white segments with monkeys are my favorites.

As a fan of psychedelic visuals done artfully and tastefully and as a discerning fan of avant garde filmmaking in general when it's done well, and lastly as a DJ who likes to show his collection of trippy films when DJing, I found this to be hugely disappointing. Boring visuals that go nowhere and aren't very trippy, beautiful, or disturbing in a fun way at all, which are some of the qualities I look for when checking this type of thing out. No mind expansion to be found here. Just a couple of guys d-cking around on their computers with no aim in sight. I would steer clear of this one. I saw it mentioned on someone's list of video art essentials and I have to say that that list led me astray. Look for Ron Hays Odyssey video or laserdisc or California Images: Hi Fi For The Eyes video if you want something that has true mind f-ck capabilities. This dvd sucks donkey d-cks.
