Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Daniel Steel Last year, Avenged Sevenfold released the documentary 'All Excess'. While it was a a great entry to any fans collection, most had been holding out for a full live concert. And now, a year later, it's finally hear, and boy was it worth the wait!Live in the LBC captures the band in perfect form during the hometown show as headline act on the 2008 Taste of Chaos tour. Like their recent self titled album, it opens with the politically charged rocker Critical Acclaim. And like the rest of the concert, it is performed very well and even manages to surpass the album version.The set-list is good and captures the highlights from their new album (Including an amazing performance of A Little Piece of Heaven), the singles from City of Evil, and a cover of Pantera's Walk sung by a fan from the crowd. While this is kind of a greatest hits set-list, and mainly aimed at their newer fans, Avenged haven't forgotten the fans that have been their from the beginning. They prove this by playing two songs off their 2003 album, Waking the Fallen. These are brilliant performances of the single Unholy Confessions, and the fan favourite Second Heartbeat. To even further satisfy these fans, Shadows even brings back some screaming vocals.I would recommend this DVD to all A7X fans. Weither you're a new fan, or a fan from the days before they were a household name. I would also recommend it to fans of rock/metal music, or are just looking for a kick ass show. Check this out, you won't be disappointed!Track List: Critical Acclaim; Second Heartbeat; Afterlife; Beast and the Harlot; Scream; Seize the Day; Walk; Bat Country; Almost Easy; Gunslinger; Unholy Confessions; A Little Piece of HeavenTrack Picks: Second Heartbeat; Bat Country; Unholy Confessions; A Little Piece of HeavenNOTE: Also includes a CD of B-sides from Avenged Sevenfold, Covers, and remixes.
jck301 This DVD/CD combo is like a gift from the rock gods themselves! Not only is this showing off their captivating live abilities, but it also introduces us to 9 great b-sides and 2 remixed songs! The highlight tracks of the album side of it are Dancing Dead, Tension, Until The End, and Girl I Know. I recommend downloading those tracks and giving them a listen. The DVD side of it is perfect. Almost an hr and a half worth of concert footage and wet in the pants performance! Synyster Gates doing his amazing guitar abilities, Zacky Vengeance playing his amazing flowed rhythm alongside, Johnny Bass putting the ASS in BASS, The Rev doing his on beat, double bass drumming, and M Shadows doing a great job and singing and throwing in some screaming as well. Just when you think the concert is over, they come back out and play an extra song for everyone, which was my personal favorite, "A Little Piece Of Heaven." I HIGHLLYYYYY recommend this album/DVD pack to everyone because it is only $14.99 and you get more than what you pay for!
