4.0 out of 5 stars Not really for the layperson, March 25, 2003

By	M. Heidenreich (WI) - See all my reviews

This Deftones live release is your best chance to hear some of band's best songs live, without actually seeing them in concert. I'm not too sure why the Deftones included the studio track "My Own Summer (Shove It)" on this CD; maybe to help promote it. All these songs, except for "Lotion" (which is on Around The Fur), are featured on their widely held debut Adrenaline. All the live versions recorded here are awesome and portray the sound of the Deftones very well. This is a definite must-have for any Deftones fanatic, but to the amateur fan there's not much to go on. I don't think I'm alone when I say that only six songs doesn't cut it. I could've used a few more; perhaps a couple more from Around The Fur to balance the weight a bit. Nevertheless, one must take the bad with good. The best live song hear is probably "Bored". Not just for the music, but because Chino stops in the middle and helps a kid find his shoe. The lone ATF song is certainly one of the best. It's also good to hear "Fireal / Swords" live as it was somewhat bizarre on Adrenaline. "Root", "Nosebleed" and "Lifter" are all amazing live tracks, and they round off the CD very nicely. If you are a huge Deftones fan and already own all their studio records then this is a certain necessity for your collection. But if you are a coming-of-age Deftones fan, I recommend you start with either Adrenaline or Around The Fur before this live album. You'll get more for your money with a couple more songs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great live set from Sacramento's best., December 22, 2000

By	Mr. Censored (Maine) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Deftones are probably one of the best and most energetic live bands out there, it's only natural that they put out a live compilation. This CD does not disappoint, unlike some reviewers claim. It is actually REALLY good.

Most of the songs on here are from 'Adrenaline' except the studio version of "My Own Summer" and the live version of "Lotion," which is one of my favorite Deftones songs. Highlights of this CD include the end of 'Bored' where a kid in the audience loses his shoe and Chino stops to help him find it. "Root" and "Lifter" are the best performed on here, and don't lose their original energy.

If you enjoyed all the studio albums put out by the Deftones, buy this. It took me a while to get it, cuz I wasn't really sure, but I'm glad I did.
