Synopsis:"After nine years the legendary Death-Thrash Metal Band Merciless have returned with a new self-titled album, more raw and primitive than ever. On May 27 2003 their ferocious power was captured at a concert Stockholm, Sweden. ..the city still hasn’t recovered.
This 2-disc special DVD edition includes the concert plus a wealth of extras and is simply not to be missed. Extra Material includes another concert from Stockholm in 1999 and one more from Hultsfred in 2003, backstage material, image gallery, promovideos and much more."
Terrible, Horrible, Aweful.
What I want to know is if these guys consider themselves serious musicians?! I mean, even compared to some of the better "growling" bands out there, this sucked!
I think tattooing my eardrums would be more comfortable than watching this DVD. The music has NO rhythm what so ever. It sounds like each of the members is playing something totally different than the others, with completely different timing, in a totally different key (if you can even pick out a key to begin with) and there is no organization of the music AT ALL.
Most of the time it doesn’t even sound like they are speaking English in the songs. (Mind you, it was filmed in Sweden, so between songs, talking to the crowd, it most likely wasn’t English, I’m talking about the lyrics…if you want to call them that.) They sound like very angry young men, maybe they are angry because they suck as musicians.
The music also boasts a very positive message to anyone willing (or able) to listen: “BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH SHIT KILL FUCK BLAH BLAH BLAH BLOOD HATE DEAD BLAH BLAH BLAH!”…At least I think that’s what they were saying…
If you are looking for a quality music DVD with a band that has some real talent…don’t buy this!
