Description:

Performances by and interviews with singer-songwriters Rufus Wainwright and Stephen Malkmus, and rock bands At the Drive-In and others, highlight this offering from Circuit Music. Spread out over more than two hours, the 2000 release offers an eclectic wealth of material, most of it notably left of center. The DVD's "magazine" format allows users to choose among songs, artist interviews, and background material; however, the advertised alternate audio tracks and camera angles are apparently nowhere to be found. That aside, the program is accessible via a menu that divides it into four sections: Bandwidth, spotlighting Wainwright, Malkmus, and others; Breakthrough, featuring the group Elf Power and two short films by Matthew Buzzell; Front Row, with live performances by At the Drive-In and former Afghan Whig Greg Dulli's Twilight Singers; and Undercurrent, with veteran Brit instrumentalists the Soft Machine and the exceedingly odd Red Krayola. Something for everyone? Well, sort of. --Sam Graham
