Rating: Summary: Best band DVD there is Review: Most DVDs released by bands are either A) A Collection of Music Videos, or B) Concert Footage. This gives you both. Its 3 hours plus of bootlegs from 3 different venues, on two different tours, all of the music videos ever released by KMFDM [except for "Zip", which was never actually released], and the original Beat By Beat video-cassette program, which is stuff from the Beat By Beat [Nihil-era] tour. Its great to watch, and it is one you will be able to watch again and again. If you are a KMFDM fan, this will definitley be worth the money.
Rating: Summary: Better than the Best Review: Ok, so if you weren't a big fan of KMFDM, why would you want to sit through X number of hours of their videos and concert footage? And if you want "Mtv caliber" production quality.... go watch Mtv! I heard there's an NSync special on tonight, or something. Anyway, for fans of KMFDM, I highly recommend this disc. Backstage antics, all the music videos, and 3 live shows. I had never seen "Beat by Beat" before, so I was excited to see that Raymond Watts (who is divinity made flesh) is also featured fairly prominently in the live footage!! Sure the sound and picture quality for the live shows are not the best, but I think it helps convey the feel of being cramped into that little club, with Sascha, En Esch, Raymond, and Gunter playing right in front of you.. and you don't have to worry about being kicked in the head by a crowd surfer. You can also pick which song you want to see from a specific live show! I only own two other music DVD's, Tool's, and the new NIN live disc. In terms of quantity, this DVD puts both of those to shame. Sure the NIN disc has great sound and picture quality, but Trent Reznor also has the cashola and corporate backing to release such a disc. KMFDM has always been on the edge, and they produce most of their own supplemental materials. Bottom line, this DVD is a MUST HAVE for any KMFDM fan. Don't listen to the other Carson Daly lovers posting reviews here.

Rating: Summary: KMFDM rocks anyway Review: So i found out that TVT was in hurry making this title. You can see it by look into a technical details: of course the NTCS are 720x480@29.97Fps as always, but bitrate is only 3500Kbit/sec - it's only a half of regular DVD bitrate! So this is why you can see compression's consequences sometimes. But the picture is dark almost everywhere so this is good - such bitrate can handle it (picture).What about perfomances? Not too much to say, just yeah, they are great as always. And they are rare (not everyday you can see Sascha's playing guitar)! Overall: a must have for every KMFDM's fan!
Rating: Summary: Something for the side effects Review: Some other bands like to make one DVD of their videos, one live DVD, (*coughministry*) and then you have to spend twice as much. However, KMFDM have CLASS. You actually get your money's worth. True, I've not watched the lo-tek bootlegs, but it's nice to know I could if I wanted.

Rating: Summary: Best KMFDM video footage & videos to date Review: This is the best KMFDM related video footage your gonna find right now (that's not a bootleg anyway). You will find a lot of live footage with ok quality sound as well as a lot of behind the scenes and interviews with various KMFDM members and crew. As a Industrial related DJ I personally bought this for playing the videos at the club and I was not disappointed. I play a lot of videos off this DVD including one of my most ever requested songs "Megalomaniac", "Money", "Vogue" and "Naive". As a KMFDM fan, a Industrial music fan and a DJ I highly recommend this DVD.
