5.0 out of 5 stars You Get What You Pay For, And That's Live Exodus And Then Some, February 22, 2010

This review is from: Shovel Headed Tour Machine: Live At Wacken & Other Assorted Atrocities (DVD)

Fans of Exodus (even fans that have followed the band since the 80's) can expect a great live release when they see this three-disc set. Disc 1 & 2 feature their fine performance from the 2008 Wacken Open Air Festival, both featuring some of the best live audio mixed by master metal producer Andy Sneap (Machine Head, Arch Enemy, Nevermore, Opeth). At 11 tracks, it's a little shorter than you'd expect from live release of this caliber, but once you realize that's nearly an hour long, you'll find that it's worth it. Especially with Disc 3, which features a documentary with footage pretty much covering the last five years of the band going back as far as showing the band recording Shovel Headed Kill Machine. It's an entertaining look at the band at some of their best moments, including a club they played in which they are now banned from playing when they incited some chaos after a fan was kicked out for stage diving even after the promoter supposedly said he'd allow stage diving. Extras also include deleted scenes from the documentary (must-see), music videos for Now Thy Death Day Come and Riot Act, a photo gallery, rare live footage, and a rare audio interview from the 80's. For under $30, this is a great buy.

This dvd will rip your throat out and shove it up your.... The audio/video quality is stunning. Exodus is on top of their game here. To me, they're newer albums are brutal and untouchable! Check out "Deathamphetamine" video for this show on youtube. This is a must have!

5.0 out of 5 stars EXODUS: Shovel Headed Tour Machine 3 Disc set., May 1, 2010

This review is from: Shovel Headed Tour Machine: Live At Wacken & Other Assorted Atrocities (DVD)

DVD 1 -- Live at Wacken. 11 song/68 min set also at Germany's premier Wacken Festival. A small note of Deutsch fests: not always the best of lineups at these things. Usually spread out over the span of a 3 day weekend, so by the time the headliner goes on, folks tend to be a little spent. If not just tired in general, tired of waiting through all the nonsense to get through to who they came to see. So when lead growler, Rob Dukes, constantly berates the crowd, you'll understand why. Although a farely good set focusing more on the new albums as well as earlier material (as many Euro fests prefer) is presented here. The latest Exodus lineup is as strong as ever though, if you haven't caught them yet, brutal only touches on what they're able to accomplish. The accompanying CD is the audio from this show.

DVD 2 - Assorted Atrocites. More or less a documentary on the last 5 years of the band with a brief pre-history by axeman Gary Holt. Somewhere around the 2 hour mark plus extras/videos, this disc is packed with all kinds of stuff. Plenty of footage of the band on and off the stage, trying to party like it's '85 all over again even as they all near age fifty. Lots of comical scenes ala Pantera/Jackass but smarter, with my personal favorite "non-metal" moments thrown in for a laugh. Rythm guitarist Lee Altus, unknown to me, is of Russian origin. So, when you first hear him speak, you might think the dude is a raging alcoholic. Even if the band is known to have a drink or two, this might sound like a strange correlation, but I found it pretty funny to finally understand. That and other details of the individual members personal ticks are also explored in this disc. All in all though, lots of entertaining info and intracasies that go into a classic thrash band in the modern day. These guys work their asses off and still manage to destroy all of their imitators, this DVD really showcases where Exodus came from and why they continue to dominate today.
