So today I'm going to review one of my favorite live albums in my
collection, and one of the very few last surviving original CDs from my original collection, that I still have.
This CD and DVD are a total Nostalgia trip from me I got this album when I was
18 years old It was one of the first things I ever got with my first pay check
from my first job, I discovered two of my favorite bands on this album Incubus
and Orgy, and I was tripping out to hear for the first time Limp Bizkit and
Korn live, I had a couple of very bad quality boot legs of these guys, back in
the day you depended on MTV or Much Music to see the videos and occasional live
sets but the Nu Metal bands got very little air time at that moment.
Line up and track list highlights:
·
Incubus ( Note I discover this
band on this CD): Blasts out funk metal
with New Skin, which is pretty cool because they don't play this song anymore.
·
Orgy: They have three tracks
on this CD they sound great, its interesting to listen how they use Synth
guitars and interesting Drum triggers to add to their particular sound, which feels very 80's in a good way. Blue
Monday the cover from New Order is one of the strongest tracks from the CD.
·
Limp Bizkit: They play two
covers Faith from George Michaels and Jump Around from the House of Pain, the
second track is the first time its on a production and its great to hear this
song reinterpreted even though it isn't perfect. On the other hand the band play
a new track called Cambodia that will latter morph into two tracks on their
next album Significant Other
·
Ice Cube: comes out swinging
with a couple of Rap classics
·
Rammstein: Play their classic
Du Hast, now on the DVD the singer on another track pulls out a rubber penis
from his pants and starts pissing on the crowd, now that pretty weird, I guess
these guys have some issues
·
Korn; this band has four tracks on the
Album one of them is a mash up medley that isn't that good, the other three
songs are great it sort of crazy but Korn sounds much better then than now, tighter more pro better grooves.
·
The DJ C-Minus plays on the
interludes from artist to artist
Overall: 56
