This live performance is more than satisfactory. The video and sound quality is really superb. It's almost like you're there live. The concert took place at the London Arena, which shows us just how crazy a London crowd can be at one of these shows. Along with seeing them perform their songs, you get to see the band prepare for the show as well. They play a lot of songs from the second album, as well as with the first one. Some of them you can count on seeing are "disasterpiece," "wait and bleed," "(sic)," "purity," "left behind," "my plague," and many, many more.

This 2 disk collection also features all of the band's videos, including a rare animated version of "wait and bleed," the bonus audio track "purity," and more.

They're a group either people love or hate, which is fine. They're not for everyone. They take their music to the extreme, always willing to take it to the limit. Some may consider their lyrics brutal and violent, but that's not Slipknot's message. Yes, believe it or not, they do have a message. And it's not "f- the world" or "everyone is garbage." Their message is that it's okay to have negative thoughts, just as long as you deal with them the right way. They deal with their demons through music. Slipknot's "Disasterpieces" is a must-have for any Slipknot fan.

We've all heard of the big DVD hit that Slipknot was planning to release but I would have never thought that it would be this...PERFECT. Perfect isn't even strong enough of a word to describe this DVD. It's a live concert of them from the Pledge of Alligence Tour in London. The video is perfect. The sound is perfect. If you have a surround sound reciever just wait until you hear this thing blasting you in the face with the power of Dolby Digital Sound. The first disc has the actual concert with a few extra goodies. The play list is as follows:
1) People = S***
2) Liberate
3) Eeyore
4) Disasterpiece
5) Purity
6) Gently
7) Eyeless
8) My Plague
9) New Abortion
10) The Heretic Anthem
11) Spit It Out
12) Wait and Bleed
13) (sic)
14) Surfacing
* Joey's Drum Solo (this alone is worth the price)
* Sid's DJ Solo

The second disc contains all of thier music videos:
1) My Plague
2) Left Behind (directors cut)
3) Wait and Bleed
4) Wait and Bleed (animated)
5) Spit It Out
The second disc also contains more concert footage with multicamera angles. If you love Slipknot this is a must have. If you don't have a DVD player this is the reason to go out and buy one.


Amazing.... The Greatest DVD of all time   November 25, 2002

This DVD is the most amazing thing ever. Suncoast in the mall sold me a copy on Saturday and I've watched the thing non stop. This mosnter is one of the most advanced and well done DVD's I've ever seen. They use over 30 cameras and have some great footage of every member of the band. The songs are of course amazing. They play fan favorites like Spit It Out, and then they play some of their less mainstream songs like Gently. The pyro is amazing and the crowd is friggin nuts. The whole show is a hundred minutes long when you include the clips of the band setting up. The second disc has tons of extras. It has the performances of The Heretic Anthem and People=S**t with a camera angle for every member of the band. Some of it is in first person view and some of it is normal shots. It's also got another multiple angle song, every music video (Spit It Out, Wait and Bleed, Wait and Bleed Animated, Left Behind Directors cut, and My Plauge Edited version). If you're a maggot or even just a metal fan, you have to get this DVD. You'll love it.

I've been a "Maggot" for about a year now. SlipKnot is one of those bands like Metallica, or Iron Maiden that when live, sounds almost identically to the studio version (Well Okay.. Corey's vocals can be a little blabbery at times). Here's how I'd rate the member's performence:

0 Sid (Turntable DJ) - Very interactive. He did a very good job. He mooned the crowd. It was cool!
1 Joey (Main Drums) - Stunning... Kick-ass solo!
2 Paul (Bass) - The true pulse of Slipknot!
3 Chris (Custom Percussion) - Custom Percussion has greatly imroved. Good work!
4 James (Guitar) - Not nearly loud enough. But good.
5 Craig (Samples) - Not used as much as I thought. Sid did more.
6 Shawn (Custom Percussion) - Same stats as Chris, Shawn is better though!
7 Mick (Guitar) - Better than James, but the amps were still too friggin' quiet!
8 Corey (Vocals) - Very good. He was enegetic through the whole concert. Really great job!

LIVE SONG INTEGRITY:
People = (...)- Very electrifying. 5/5
Liberate - Another good song. 5/5
Left Behind - A favorite off IOWA. 5/5
Eeyore - Heavy as Corey promises. 5/5
Disasterpiece - Another hit. 5/5
Purity - Nicely done. 4.5/5
Gently - Not my favorite, but good. 4/5
Eyeless - My second favorite! 6/5
My Plauge - Iddentical to studio version! Awsome! 6/5
New Abortion - Powerful. 5/5
The Heretic Anthem - Another IOWA favorite! 5/5
Spit it Out - My favorite! Sid & Corey were very interactive with the crowd. 7/5
Wait and Bleed - Another favorite. 5/5

(Sic) - Nicely done again. 5/5
Surfacing - SweEeEet! 5/5
*Joey's Drum solo - Ground breakingly god-like awsome! 25/5
*Sid's DJ solo - Good, but can get boring. 3.75/5

MUSIC VIDEO RATING:
My Plauge - From the Resident Evil soundtrack. Awsome! 5/5
Left Behind - A confusing plotless video, but a good song! 5/5
Wait and Bleed - A good SlipKnot song. 5/5
Wait and Bleed Claymation - Loved It!!! Very Cool!!! 6/5
Spit it Out - Very Good!! I Loved it! So Intersting... 6/5

DVD OVERALL:

Performance - Awsome as expected.
DVD Features - Multi-angle views are awsome! Very deep DVD!
Sound Quality - Almost like you were there!
Picture Quality - Sometimes it's hard to see because it's at night. But very clear!
Menu Setup - Ummm... Pretty good(?) I dunno...
DVD Overall - A Maggot's fantasy made reality... Thank you, SlipKnot!

If you're a maggot, you'll love this!

This is a perfect DVD for the slipknot fan. It has phenomenal video and sound quality, unbelievable that it's live. They used over 30 cameras to film this DVD and it sure does show. This DVD includes a nice 15-song set performed in London. In addition to this, it includes 5 of the 'knots music videos. One word to describe this DVD would be "incredible."
