Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Heavy Metal is defined in this concert that slipknot performed. The way the band started the show with people = S**t was what really got me hooked on this and was just the first song. Blasting out their early songs like spit it out and liberate shows that they can get a crowd to go ballistic. Corey Taylor's vocals and screams, Mick and Jim's Guitars, Paul's bass, Joey's solo, and Shawn,Sid,and Chris's crazy performances are some of the craziest things I have ever seen. Shawn Crahan's way of entertaining is amazing and the stage moves that Jim root was pulling off shows that you don't have to constantly stand still on stage. The pyro techniques of were set at the right moments and livened up the performance even more than it was. Slipknot was able to get to people in London to go crazy just goes to show that they are capable of getting any crowd in any city to lose their minds. The final song to be played was just perfect and was as Corey said our new national anthem. This DVD sets Slipknot apart from all the poser bands.
The best live DVD i have ever seen in my life by one of my favorite bands ever is a must buy. If you have the 9.0: Live CD from Slpknot, you already have the sound to it.Me and my friends all bought Disasterpeices, and of course loved it, and then bought the CD, and noticed almost half of the songs (or more!) were actually just the Disasterpoeices DVD just without picture.There are many special features on the DVD such as: Live performances - 10/10 Videos - 8/10 Alternate Camera views - 5/10 there are a few more, only i don't remember them. But over all, the performances are amazing, but his singing isn't the best, but that's because of their masks and Corey's tired vocals. They only sound bad on the live CD.Warning: expect profanity, and lots of it!
Never have I seen such a intense and tight live DVD as this one! Slipknot is known to be one of the loudest and fastest band around, and they certainly prove this on Disasterpieces. Shot in London with thousands of dedicated fans, it couldn't possibly go wrong, and it definitely didn't! The set list is based around their earliest recordings, the self titled debut Slipknot from 1999 and IOWA from 2001. Usually, it can be a bit boring to have so little songs to choose from, but in Slipknot's case, it's no problem at all, because both albums are very good. From the very first tune they play, the crowd in London, and also you, get psyched to a ecstatic level. Never have extreme music been this good on a DVD recording! They never rest, and keeps on pumping out agony and hate for nearly 2 hours. Many times when you listen to this type of music, it has a tendency to get boring and similar after a while. Slipknot is not one of these cases. When the last song is through, you wish that it continue, but it's sadly enough over.As bonus on this DVD you get some promo videos that are fairly cool, but not so much more is to find on the two discs. But hey, this release is ESSENTIAL and should be found in every metal lovers DVD collection.
First off, anyone who said that the concert was too dark on their TV either got a bootlegged copy or has one crappy TV. OK, this two disc set is a must for anyone who likes SlipKnoT or heavy music in general. I know it's been said already, but I want to get the point across. The videos on disc two are amazing, with every video through the release of Iowa; including both versions of Wait and Bleed, and the director's cut of Left Behind. Now for the main reason to buy this DVD. The concert from start to finish is out-freaking-standing. Sid's leaps from higher points on stage, Shawn and Chris making percussion evil, Joey is god-like on drums, Mick and James are like twin powerhouses on guitar, and Corey's voice is the instrument that brings it all together. Combining all these on-stage elements with some of the best editing and camera work I've seen in any kind of film (no, really!), makes for some the heaviest hitting songs I've ever seen or heard. Log off your computer right now. Go on, do it. Now head to the store and pick up Disasterpieces. Stay (sic).
