"If you haven't heard Puscifer, go grab a copy of V is for Vagina. The first listen may throw you off, as it comes off as more of a remixed, experimental form of Maynard's creativity. Think Tool mixed with Lovage.

As for this DVD, this is a single with only the video of Queen B and two commentary tracks - one by Maynard himself. If you've seen the Tool commentaries then you know what to expect.

The video itself is excellent. It's fun and doesn't take itself seriously. The song, if you don't love it already, will grow on you as the melodies spin round your head like a spiral. You'll find yourself humming or singing the underlying chorus throughout the day. And it's not one of those annoying songs that sticks in your mind, it's actually a good tune to be humming.

The packaging is great. It's a gatefold digipak that's not as tall as a DVD case but not as small as a CD. It opens into a panoramic from the video itself.

Over all it's a good value for the price. Pick it up and spread the word - Puscifer is on the scene."
