5 out of 5 stars If you like Meshuggah, then you'll probably like this.   February 7, 2010

I say that with hesitance because Meshuggah is one of the most polarizing bands I know. I love them, and everyone around me hates them, so I get used to people not being into them. However, I must say that I was EXTREMELY satisfied with this DVD. Almost all of the footage was amazing. The only one that could've been better was "Bleed" in NYC, because it was at a much smaller club and they apparently had fewer cameras. There are a lot of candid moments with the band in between songs, and good interviews. If you don't like that stuff, you can just skip through, and it will still be awesome.
My recommendation is to buy it and play it LOUDLY.



5 out of 5 stars Top notch production and great setlist   February 13, 2010

Meshuggah Alive is a band at the top of their game playing some of the most impressive progressive metal of today. Their performances are top-notch and almost perfect with just enough of that human element to keep it interesting. The highlight for myself and most fans will likely be Bleed, which is played with surprising precision. Also, New Millenium Cyanide Christ stands out as sounding possibly better than the Chaosphere version, as does The Mouth Licking What You've Bled. Lethargica boasts an even slower breakdown than on the obZen album version which makes this heavier than hell track even heavier.

Unlike the "Nothing" reissue DVD, the camera work here isn't seizure inducing and the camera actually follows Fredrik when he's playing a solo. BIG PLUS. Also the sound quality is superior to that DVD.

The ONLY downside to the long and varied setlist from their career None thru obZen is the glaring omission of Future Breed Machine. Maybe they're sick of playing it or maybe it's an easter egg (wishful thinking). Other songs I would've liked to see would be Sickening, Corridor of Chameleons, and In Death-Is Death, but the setlist here is already quite stellar.

The DVD is the real highlight here but having a CD of all the tracks boasts even more bang for your buck. Highly recommended for all Meshuggah fans.



5 out of 5 stars Meshuggah makes good on first live dvd/cd   February 19, 2010

For years Meshuggah have been churning out chaotic, devastating metal, and now they finally have a live release for the fans to really enjoy. The main feature on the dvd is a concert/documentary film with footage of them in several cities on their obZen tour. Sound quality is top notch as the live audio was mixed by longtime producer/engineer Daniel Bergstrand (In Flames, Soilwork, Behemoth). Extras include the Bleed music video as well as the making of the video, and behind the scenes looks at the bands instruments (drums, guitars, and bass). The audio cd features all of the songs from the dvd, but in a different order, even some being from shows different than the dvd. If I had one complaint, it'd be that there aren't enough songs from Chaosphere and obZen, and there are none from Destroy Erase Improve, not even Future Breed Machine, one of their most well known songs. Despite the lack of some material, the quality of the product overall (production, audio, visuals, even the packaging) makes up for it. This is their first live release after all.


5 out of 5 stars Killer DVD   February 13, 2010

I preordered this DVD because I was at that 2009 New York Show. I have to say it captures the moment. I realize now it was a small stage (comparing to the Tokyo and Montreal footage), but I am so glad they included one track from that show! That piece has more crowd footage than any other, with hovering overhead cams and everything, and it truly shows how off the hook it was from the stage ALLL the way back to the sound board. If the whole DVD were like that, with insane people mugging for the camera from the pit, it would get old. But one song, I'm glad they picked Bleed!

So in short, the DVD is great. The band is totally on it with every track. I really like the interludes with the band between songs. Besides the interviews which are always great, the audio and video treatment of that footage is cool. The sound on the included CD is sharp and heavy. For any fan of the band, this is well worth picking up. One word of warning: After viewing, you may find yourself shopping for a new surround system.

this dvd shows that meshuggah isn't just a studio creation, they can deliver the same incredible mind bending sonic assault live as well. there are also some nice clips of the band members talking about what it's like to be on the road, and it isn't all "i''m a rock star" type of bs. the live cd is great as well. if you like meshuggah, get this.
