Review



7 years after their video Anathema released this DVD. Again they decided to record their show in Krakow, Poland and looking at the recording it seems an excellent choice. The sound is perfect in Dolby 5.1 and the video is one of the best I've ever seen. There are multiple camera's, some sweeping over the audience's heads, some small ones attached to the mic stand and keyboards. But hmmm the show itself.. honestly I think it's quite boring. They only play songs from their last three cds, which are far from their best ones. And I don't get all these stupid sound effects and songs that go on too long and Vincent's Michael Jackson lookalike style. Near the end of the show things get a bit better as they're playing some faster songs and Lee Douglas sings along two songs, but still this definitely isn't something for me. The Liverpool gig is interesting because some violin players are joining, but it looks like it's an amateur recording from the audience. The other two live songs aren't much better and the video clip is as boring as the song it's made for. So despite the superior quality of the main show, I very much prefer "A Vision of a Dying Embrace".

Rating: 6.5 out of 10
