1.0 out of 5 stars Was this a joke ?, May 11, 2005

By	M. A Spitzer "mas017" (Fort Lauderdale, Florida USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had heard about the GREAT KAT for years but never really paid much attention.
Had a chance to see this DVD.

IS THIS A JOKE ?

Irritating noise, no real guitar playing to speak of and what is there is monotonous diatonic noodling with a buzzy tone.

There is no semblance of music to be seen or heard here, just an attempt to be as controversial and noisy as possible.

Beyond bad.

1.0 out of 5 stars Kat is Lame!, May 8, 2005

By	Shred - See all my reviews

I have heard about The Great Kat and I was eager to see her in action. This DVD is VERY disappointing. It is simply a collection of 6 videos that last only 2 minutes each.
The ENTIRE disc runs no more than 15 minutes, which is a total rip-off.
Kat looks like quite an able guitar player but it is really hard to judge from this DVD.
The short videos are extremely fast, with a wall of sound cacophony of noise and grunting animal sound vocals which is nothing less than annoying.
The visual images are disturbing and this is a real schlock piece made to cash in on the Vampire/Speed Metal genre. This is gimmick music if this can even be called music. I'm no prude, I love Sacred Reich, Pantera & all sorts of speed metal. But this disc is simply garbage.
Kat looks like she might have some talent because she can play really fast. But then again I can also play guitar really fast and with a wall of sound band noise behind me you couldn't tell if I was missing notes or what. All her speed is pointless and wasted on this garbage. A whole lot less speed and a good deal more passion might help her playing.
She should join a decent band and actually play songs and guitar solos instead of this noise. I doubt if one could really hear her playing past all this noise that she could even come close to Metallica's Kirk Hammet's TRUE guitar solos.
Amazon needs to allow a zero star rating because this disc really deserves it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money and buy gas instead, April 27, 2006

By	rokker "tom" (oregon, wi usa) - See all my reviews

six videos, twelve minutes and absolutely nothing enjoyable about this disc. If you've got money to throw away this is a perfect vehicle for that. This clearly proves that fast does not equal great or even talented for that matter. Save your money and buy a gallon of gasoline instead, it will take you further than this DVD ever does.
