It seems like only yesterday that Lemmy and cohorts changed metal with their earthshaking, thundering sound--a 25th-anniversary concert in London puts to rest the notion that Motörhead are past their prime. Don't tell that to sole original member Lemmy: the singer-bassist still performs with the same intensity he did a quarter-century ago. This nearly two-hour set is filled with memorable Motörhead moments, from the opening, boastful "We Are Motörhead" to the trio of headbanging encores, "Bomber," "Ace of Spades," and "Overkill." Guest stars, like former member Eddie Clarke and Queen guitarist Brian May, make for a more festive occasion than most Motörhead shows. DVD extras are plentiful: music videos for "God Save the Queen" and "Sacrifice"; an acoustic version of "Ain't No Nice Guy"; four extra songs "Live at Wacken"; a multiangle option during "I'm So Bad"; additional interviews; Motörhead member bios; anamorphic widescreen; and Dolby 5.1 sound. --Kevin Filipski

5.0 out of 5 stars STAND UP STRAIGHT!, February 9, 2003

"If this band moved in next door to you, your lawn would die." -- Lemmy
To paraphrase Bill Murray, there are two types of people in this world: those who love Motörhead, and those who are pathetic wimps. This DVD is an absolute blast. From classics like "Metropolis" and "Iron Fist" to new rockers like "Stay Out of Jail" and "Sacrifice", there's not a bad song in the nearly two-hour set. (Was there ever a bad Motörhead song, really?) Cools extras like the Wacken Open Air show, "Ain't No Nice Guy" unplugged, music videos, bios, interviews, etc., make this DVD a great value for Motörheadbangers everywhere. It's my favourite music DVD and I'd gladly lend it to you... but then I hardly know you, so you'll just have to get your own. Buy two and give one to your neighbour. It's the least you can do after killing his lawn.

5.0 out of 5 stars Motorhead Celebrates 25th Anniversary in Style!, November 14, 2001

Not many bands manage to make it to their 25th birthday. Even less have the level of influence on the world of rock that Motorhead have exerted. Some of the worlds biggest bands continually give a nod to Lemmy and the boys, citing them as the reason they first picked up a guitar.

It seems only fitting that Motorhead would celebrate their 25th Anniversary in real style. Going back to their roots, the band played a special show at London's famous Brixton Academy. With special guests like Brian May (QUEEN), Fast Eddie Clark (ex-Motorhead), Whitfield Crane (UGLY KID JOE) and Doro Pesch (DORO, WARLOCK), the stage was set for a very special evening.

The entire event was captured on film and is now presented here in DVD format. The DVD also features lots of behind the scenes and backstage material as well as interviews unique to this release. There are even some cool easter eggs for you to discover! This is the difinitive Motorhead concert - a milestone in the career of these metal giants!

I cannot describe the feeling that you receive from seeing a motorhead live concert, the nearest experience you can get without buying a ticket & get into a mass filled fan auditorium is buying this dvd or some of the live LP's, in fact the dvd gives you all, the sound is incredible 5.1 standard, the live set is awesome, it is also fulfilled with extras, hidden features. I have seen it maybe 30 times & keep going, also there are two promotional videos (sacrifice & god save the queen), videos from Lemmy & Phil playing "I ain't no nice guy", 4 live songs from the wacken open air festival in germany in 2001.
In short you get everything you want from a live dvd, the cameras & the sound is over the top! You get assaulted, insulted, & you end deaf from hearing Motorhead as a bonus! Long life to Lemmy Kilmister, Phil Campbell & Mr. Dee!
