Product: WWIII Tour 2003
Rating: 5.0
Behind the music: KMFDM
I was sorely disappointed when I missed out on seeing one of my personal favorite bands last year. There wasn't any big ads in any of the local papers that advertised the band's gig which is how I missed the show. So I decided I would make up for that by buying their new dvd "WWIII Tour 2003". I'm glad that I did. The dvd consists of performances from the band but even better behind the scenes of the band and how they interact with each other. I always wanted to know what KMFDM is like when they aren't on stage. The behind the scenes that is interlaced between the performance scenes gives the viewer a glimpse into the touring life of KMFDM. I don't have the other two KMFDM dvds so I can't really compare this with them. I enjoyed watching the live performances. They were a great reminder to the killer performance I saw of them on their 2002 tour "Sturm & Drang tour". Contrary to some of the band's lyrics, the band has quite a wicked sense of humor especially when they decided to draw on a sleeping roadie's face. I also loved the scene where the band goes to (yet another) truckstop. I loved seeing Raymond Watts looking at the boots. The brief interviews with each of the band members was interesting. It's nice to know how each member fits into the band. Most of the songs the bands plays on tour is from their recent album "WWIII" but they do play a couple oldies but goodies like "Light" and "Juke Joint Jezebel" (the song that introduced me to KMFDM several years ago). All in all, this is a worthy dvd to get for KMFDM fans. It is a good balance between music and behind the scene footage.
