CRITICISM:

Very nice recording of Napalm Death at one of it's most special points in the carrer of the band. The video was professionally recorded and features sharp and crisp, cristal clear image and sound. It also has some bits with short interview with the band members, not available in the CD version obviously. Most of the songs are from the first two releases by the band, being played by the line up which was gathered at the time (Barney, Jesse, Mitch, etc). The approach towards the songs is also very much more death metal like, and since the songs they play here were originally wirtten by 15 year old british punk kids, this does makes some difference in the sound (it's less "messy grind" and more towards organized death metal). This is not bad at all, and it gives a new sound to the songs. A visceral performance with top sound quality.

 

 

INFORMATION ON THE RELEASE:
