DVD Reviews of Radiohead: The Astoria London Live
DVD Review: Excuse some of the editing....This one's a keeper.
Summary: 5 Stars
Anybody that watched this and gets frustrated at the occasional editing has a legitimite reason to complain about a few moments in this otherwise brilliant DVD.
Sometimes you miss the best parts of certain songs because an edit or two is made quicker than you'd like.....Sometimes you'd like to see a wide shot with the crowd w/ the blue haze and the whole band for 10-15 seconds to let the thing breathe.... I get that.
But beyond all of that, this thing is so cool if you like either Radiohead or the music of the the early Grunge-Alternative scene. Seeing the crowd get in a frenzy during 'Ripcord' and NEW songs like 'The Bends' and 'My Iron Lung' is almost like a history lesson on Radiohead - what they used to be like. Any fan knows they altered their reputation as a rock band to seek a deeper, darker and untapped genre of music.
What we see in the DVD is the rawest form Radiohead, who was about to release perhaps the best album of the 90's (The Bends) and these fans had no idea until they got to see it in person. Pablo Honey was the perfect alternative record for the times - Several deep cuts with a hit - the quentissential hit (Creep), and a very memorable ending (Blowout)......So the anticipation for the new album-to-be was high.
So when rolled into one, it is amazing to see these 4 guys do it then, so straight forward and direct rock and roll, when now they put on more of a production and a show to please a very thirstly audience. Radiohead proves that even in it's infant stages as rock stars, they could rock as hard as ANY legitimate world-wide band. Watch 'Blow Out' one more time - they make their point. And then there's 'Creep'.... it's the very rare example you will ever get to see this song live - and it's as intense as the first few times you heard it in 1993.
Point Blank - it proves why many Radiohead fans loved the band from the beginning.
Enjoy.
