"For fans of Udo Dirkschneider, this is a must-have. Udo, of course, was the lead singer of the aweseome 80's metal band ACCEPT, which toured with the likes of Guns 'N Roses, Judas Priest, and some of the biggest metal acts in history. Accept hit their peak in 1986, producing many great albums.Dirkschneider formed the band U.D.O. in 1988 while Accept was deciding whether to stay together or not (they didn't and after a reunion in the late 1990's, they called it quits) and this is the stuff that Accept fans really enjoyed! U.D.O. is Accept continued and each and every album has given us the Accept tradition: super lyrics (commenting on everything from politics to technology), great twin metal guitar solos, and lead vocalist Udo Dirkschneider's indistinguishable singing. Gruff, powerful, emotional, and at the forefront, the VOICE is the top reason we keep coming back. Yes, it's an acquired taste, but along with Rob Halford and a select few other 'Metal Gods', Udo represents the absolute top of the genre. This DVD is a compilation of the whole history of U.D.O. There's an hour long concert (with a screaming crowd of 10,000 + fans) that includes classic U.D.O. songs like 'Holy', 'Shout It Out', 'Independence Day' and even a couple of Accept classics like the gentle, soul-soothing 'Winterdreams.' The concert has excellent sound, fasting cutting, and is crystal clear. If you have Surround Sound, it's truly like being there! Other goodies include nine classic full-length rock videos, including a Video Press Kit for U.D.O.'s spectacular TIMEBOMB album, the video for the excellent Russian collaboration 'Still', and Udo's long-lost metal anthems 'Break The Rules' and 'They Want War' (a haunting video that really comments on how we raise our children in this crazy world, gives you plenty to think about!). There's more, including the gold nugget 'Heart of Gold' and a making of presentation of this 'Faceless World' album. And even more still on this incredible DVD, there's a long section of the band traveling around the world and superior home video footage of their behind-the-scenes journey set to U.D.0. music. There's a still section, bibliography, footnotes, and even a section of rare DEMO songs and alternate takes of recent Udo releases! The album bibliography contains the lyrics to every song along with sound samples! Trust me, if you're an U.D.O. fan, casual or die-hard, this disc delivers the goods. It's one of my favorite DVDs of all time. Now if only we can get ROB HALFORD to release something like this covering his FIGHT/TWO/HALFORD days, I'll die a happy camper!
Anyway, order the U.D.O. DVD, you'll will not be disappointed."
