CD Reviews
Two bands, one disc, zero reasons to buy

"Nah, I can't really get into this. I have a stack of Melvins CDs, a Fantomas disc or two, some Faith No More, and all that groovy loud stuff. So I had high hopes for this live album.But 90% of it is a noisy waste. I'm surprised that these guys decided to play weird death-metal jams while Mike Patton screams over top. I mean, they can all really play, so why just act like [that]on stage? What's the point?Sometimes I'll listen to this when I need a caffeine jolt of mindless aggression. It's like Ministry for nerds, with an extra hit of doofus humor and none of the discipline."
If you like Melvins...

"If you like Melvins,don't buy this cd.There are only 4 songs by them inside.Night Goat,Hooch from Houdini,The Bit from Stag and Mombius Hibachi from Honky.Hooch version is cut.Only for Fantomas/Tomahawk supporters."

"First of all im not a kid, i'm just writing on here because I don't have a email to an account with. I am a big fan of the Melvins and the only Fantomas album I've heard is suspended animation but I love it. I was browsing thru amazon when I found this. I gave the sound clips a listen and it sounded interesting and different. So I decided to buy it, and I love it! It has a few flaws so I could rate it four stars or maybe even three stars but I love it so much that i can't. I highly recommend this/"
LOVE IT

"IT SEEMS LIKE BARELY ANYONE LIKES THIS CD BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH! I AM A HUGE FAN OF THE MELVINS AND THE FANTOMAS, AND THEY ARE GREAT TOGETHER! THIS CD IS VERY INTENSE AND IT'S NOT LIKE ANYTHING YOU'LL HEAR ON THE RADIO. I LOVE BOTH OF THE SINGERS, BUT IN SOME OF THE SONGS WHERE THEY SING TOGETHER IT DOESN'T SOUND THAT GREAT. I STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ALBUM TO ANY MELVINS OR FANTOMAS FAN, OR ANYONE WHO'S LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND HEAVY."
