Rating: Summary: Wow Review: A friend of mine bought the DVD and popped it in for us to watch. Wow. It's amazing! Captivating! Can't say enough good things about it! Underworld is great!
Rating: Summary: Not the trippiest thing ever Review: A friend told me to watch this because he thought it was the trippest thing he'd ever seen. I wouldn't say that, but it's still pretty cool. The music and graphics are nicely choreographed.

Rating: Summary: Next best thing to being there Review: Absolutely incredible. The sound quality is amazing (listen in Dolby 5.1!), the visuals are stunning. As one of the lucky few to actually see Underworld live, I can attest to the fact that this video is as close as you can get without actually being there. The DVD is a collection of songs from the band's best shows, from Glastonbury to Japan, with gigantic crowds roiling and bouncing with the pulsing beats. If you even remotely like electronic music, you must watch this. Once you realize that these 3 guys improvise all their live shows, it becomes difficult to believe that it can sound so good.
Rating: Summary: Pure energy Review: Any fan of electronica knows who Underworld is and has heard the group's songs on numerous compilations. I have always been a fan of their sound, especially Darren Emerson's DJ skills and the wicked vocals they incorporate in the electronic sound. But I wasn't too convinced of their ability or status as pioneers in this genre until I saw or, I should say, was blown away by this performance. The songs are basically their greatest hits like "Jumbo" and "Born Slippy", but they throw many curveballs in these live performances that make the songs seem like remixes or even new songs. However, the best part of this DVD is the pure energy of it all. And it is not just the ambiance and the acid-trip like graphics that incessantly flash in front of the screen. Underworld is truly genius in their live performances. Try to watch five minutes of this one without rocking, nodding your head, or stomping your feet like the thousands of people in the audience. This DVD makes me wish I was at these performances, but this is the next best thing to being there.
Rating: Summary: An electronica gem Review: As an early raver and techno-music lover now living far away from live music and the underground scene, I found this dvd to be a "fix" for the kind of pure happiness and energy I have experienced on dance floors, raving in the desert, and attending concerts, including Underworld. In addition to Tomato's stunning art and high quality production, the footage brings to life the technical work of the musicians, the faces of the dancing crowd, and Karl Hyde's performance. It's totally absorbing to watch, a very professional, artistic and inspiring experience of dance music culture.

Rating: Summary: Do You Wanna Dance?!! Review: Five stars is not enough. I was not lucky enough to see Underworld live but this isn't bad at all. You are absolutely drawn into this. And if you're not moving one at least one part of your body after 10 minutes then check out cause you're probably six feet under. Also it contains a bonus cut of Kittens and Rowla.
Rating: Summary: OMG OMG OMG OMG Review: Hands down THE best live electronic music DVD you will ever find to date. Nuff said.
