Paradise
9 is a very cool psychedelic space rock band with punky edge that I have been
following for a few years. I was lucky enough to see them in the UK a few years
back and they are really cool people as well.. This DVD features 9 tracks of
all original material. It is shot with 4-5 cameras and the video is quite
clear. The lights are a bit too bright on the stage to really appreciate the
visual projections but you get to see the band clearly. The songs are from the
bands last few releases including all the tracks on the State of the nation EP
but nothing from the Showtime CD (1999). My favourite song of the set is the brilliant
Distant Dreams. I quite enjoyed this but I was not fond of the audio mix at
all. During the first part of the show you can’t really hear the lead guitar at
all. The mix becomes better but it still sounds like a mix of video camera
audio and soundboard mix. Fun to see the band in action.. Enjoy..
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
