Editorial Reviews

It's called GIGANTOUR, and it's the brainchild of Megadeth frontman/guitarist Dave Mustaine. Megadeth leads the charge in this relentless heavy metal onslaught from the 2005 tour, a six-week festival trek co-headlined by Megadeth and Dream Theater. The tour also features classic metal icons Anthrax Fear Factory, Nevermore, Life Of Agony, Symphony X and more. This fast and furious compilation is the ultimate hard-rocking force full of progressive metal solos and speed metal riffs. The top bands’ performances captured here will prove why this was the best metal bill of the year.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Gigantour (DVD)

As another reviewer said, this is a rare opportunity to see Dream Theater play Panic Attack and The Glass Prison live, as it will not be included on the Score DVD. I think they chose these two because they wanted to play some heavier material for the crowds that Megadeth and Fear Factory attract. And as a bonus, Symphony X will be playing Inferno, which is a big plus for any DT fans who haven't check them out yet. Aside from the prog metal portion of this DVD though, Factory and Megadeth fans will get to hear some DT and hopefully will like it. It's going to be a great experiemental DVD for both sides of the spectrum, and people like me will get the best of both worlds. But who the heck is Bobaflex? Like I said, a good experimental DVD with something new and exciting for everyone. Add the bonus features on the second DVD, and you've got yourself quite a sweet deal for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-See DVD, August 1, 2006

This review is from: Gigantour (DVD)

I saw Gigantour in Boston, and was absolutely blown away by almost all the bands. Dream Theater is one of my favorite bands, as is Symphony X (who did not play in Boston). If you love Symphony X, this is your only chance to see them on DVD.

If you did not get to see this tour, or if you were unlucky like me and didn't get to see all the bands, you MUST get this DVD![...]

5.0 out of 5 stars Unorthodox Metal Line-up, December 13, 2006

By 

Master Jojo "Harbinger of Death" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gigantour (DVD)

With my all time favorite Megadeth, Fear Factory and progressive metalist Dream Theater in tow, you can't be wrong. In this DVD, I became an instant fan of Nevermore and Symphony X. Hope that they will be releasing thier own DVD soon. All in all, this is worth watching except I just can't bear watching Bobaflex...Anyway, I will be waiting for Gigantour 2 since all the lineup is awesome with Arch Enemy, Opeth and Soulfly....Hope that it will be realsed soon....

For now, enjoy the first offering by Dave Mustaine.....
