The package contains a CD - 33 min. running time - and a DVD with live footage and off stage material. Additionally there is a comic with the story of Metalian. Sounds good, right? Unfortunately the packages Metalian Attack don't fulfil the expectations!
First surprise when I started the DVD... A Spanish introduction! I don't speak Spanish and from an international release I expect an English introduction, probably additionally in another language... Even if the DVD was produced in Spain. Okay, let's go on!
The menu is a bad joke! The background image shows the Metalium logo, but it looks like it's done from a small print or it's just badly scanned. On the logo are yellow edged letters. Nice. It lists the 28 parts (listing see below) of this DVD. It's good that there is a live CD included, coz so you can enjoy t more. Changing the locations during the songs is annoying, coz they mixed festival performances with club shows. Why that?
Next I have to criticize the realization of the travel through the bands history. Okay, it's very detailed and gives a lot of information. It's only in one language. Mainman Lars Ratz speaks English. Why not using more tracks? Why isn't the image synchronized with the sound? Anyway, the sound is quite good. The camera moves and the fading in and out is not very convincing. Only the parts which were recorded in New York and during the recordings can convince me. Another nice piece is the part about the 'making of' the cover artwork of Metalium.
On other DVDs you find some words from the band, a photo section and sometimes even more stuff. Anyway, my rèsumé is that you can spend your money on better DVDs! Sorry guys, but there are hundreds of bands who did a better job! Not a waste of money at all, but....
