Review

A monstrous audio-video spectacular featuring legendary axeman, George Lynch, and his band o bros, Lynch Mob!

With killer, supercharged renditions of classic Dokken/Lynch Mob tracks such as Tooth And Nail, Breaking The Chains, Wicked Sensation, River Of Love, Hell Child and more!

Professionally filmed live performances recorded during last year s blockbuster REvolution Tour and mixed in awesome 5.1 surround sound!

Major press campaign planned with full servicing and ads in Metal Edge, Hit Parader, Revolver and others!

In these times of fabricated stardom, the quest to find true, enduring legends is often obscured by the smoke and mirrors of reality show celebrity. Yet, one name never leaves the list of the world s top guitarists...of Hollywood rock royalty...of most metal ...George Lynch. For over 2 decades, Mr. Scary has been synonymous with the title Guitar Hero.

When the former Dokken axe slinger split to build his ideal metal machine, The Lynch Mob, sparks continued to fly and another era of high octane, shredding, melodic rock ensued. In 2003, George recalled his elite guard: original bassist, Anthony Esposito, longtime Lynch Mob vocalist Robert Mason and drummer Chaz Stumbo. The newly recharged crew took the songs from the critically acclaimed REvolution sessions on the road for a select handful of tour dates from L.A. to New York. This pro-shot video captures both the apex and farewell performance of this monster squad, beaming the sweaty, blistering, soulful metal into your home theater in glorious 5.1 surround sound. Gather your friends, grab a cold one and get your lighter in the air. You ll swear you re in the front row! --Cleopatra Records

2.0 out of 5 stars George Lynch plays in Lynch Mob, right?, June 21, 2005

By

This review is from: REvolution: Live! DVD/CD (DVD)

I was a big Dokken and Lynch Mob (1st 2 CDs) fan, and I was really looking forward to this DVD. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed.

First of all, with this being Lynch's band I wanted to see him playing, but I'd say he's only featured on-camera in about 20% of the footage, and it's often dark. They don't even have a camera on the right side of the stage until about 8 songs into the performance! But, if you are a big Esposito fan, you'll be thrilled because you get extreme closeups of him singing backing vocals that are barely audible. There's also plenty of Lynch Mob's second-best vocalist Robert Mason singing as well. George is using an ESP baritone for the entire show, so everything is much deeper, which isn't really appealing to me because it loses that biting edge that he had with Dokken and Lynch Mob (let's pretend "Smoke This" doesn't exist.)

Another huge disappointment is that the audio track and video aren't synced in some spots. It's a really sloppy job. The extras are very weak and short.

1.0 out of 5 stars REvolting is more like it...., April 4, 2006

When I saw this in the store I had to pick it up since I am a major George Lynch fan. Have been since the 80's with Dokken and his hair metal days. Couldn't wait to pop it in the dvd player and see George blaze it out on stage. Man, was I ever disappointed in the quality in both video and audio.

How could this be so bad? Let me first start off by the video quality: terrible. It looked like some fan shot it with their own handheld camcorder from about 20 feet from the stage. It said on the back of the dvd that it was professional shot. Right. The videographer must've been on pot that day because I could've done a better job. Video clarity was mediocre at best because a lot of the image is grainy and was poorly lit with the lighting on stage. For some reason the image looked "stretched" to fit a widescreen format but forgot to include the black bars on top so while it fits my 4:3 tv, it looked like the guys were too elongated onscreen.

Audio: hmmm.. 5.1? sounds more 2.0 to me. I had to turn up my 5.1 system to really hear it and I have lots of concert dvds to compare it to. Very subpar audio quality.

Content: Well. It does feature George on guitar. That's about as far as my enthusiasm goes. George really didn't do anything spectacular as far as I'm concerned. His guitar sounded muddy and not that great if you asked me. Then again it just could've been the recording quality so if you were there live, it probably sounded badass. I have the Dokken live dvd in Japan and it is a hundred times better than this so I'd recommend that before considering this POS. Heck, even the audience looked comatose!! They could've been mannequins for all I care, very lifeless and bored to death. The one thing I did LIKE is the studio cuts with George talking about his sound, gear, and past. But that's not enough to justify this price of admission. Luckily this dvd came with an audio cd of the concert so I can RElive this snoozer of a concert whenever I feel like taking a nap.

Sorry, but I think I'll relive my hair metal days with Dokken.

2.0 out of 5 stars Like a old Japanese film..., November 30, 2005

just received my DVD in the mail and couldn't wait to check it out! I am a musician and I was very excited to finally check out one of my all time guitar heroes up close.
But... I am extremely disappointed with the editing of the live footage. It is so far off time/sync that it looks like an old Japanese film. What the hell were these people looking at? I'll sell this on ebay.
I have done a little video editing with Adobe Premiere.. I know I could have done a way better job at editing this footage together.. George, I hope you sued these guys!
