Brutality Live was recorded at Labatt's Apollo, Hammersmith, London on July 19th 2000.

Well, for all you Alice Cooper fans or any metal fans, boy are you in for a treat with this DVD. With an Alice Cooper concert, you are not just treated to Alice singing in front of his band, it is much more than that, it is more of a show, a performance and with the help of Calico Cooper (The Nurse/Whipdancer), together they bring some of the tracks to life. Alice also has quite a few costume changes throughout the show.

You wouldn't think Alice Cooper was now at the age of 54 and still turning out some of the best metal music around. And his latest stuff is more brutal than ever, check out 'Brutal Planet' or 'Dragontown'. Alice now has a young band with him and very competent musicians they are I have to say.

There's quite a variety of Alice's songs on this DVD from his latest offering's such as 'Brutal Planet', 'Gimme', 'Blow Me A Kiss', right back to 'The Ballad of Dwight Fry' from 'Love It To Death' released way back in June 1971 and 'Dead Babies', 'You Drive Me Nervous' and 'Under My Wheels' from the 'Killer' album released in December 1971.

You are also treated to some of the hits Alice had in the '70's 'School's Out', which reached No. 1 in the UK charts and No.7 in the US charts in June 1972, besides 'Elected', 'Billion Dollar Babies' and 'No More Mr. Nice Guy'.

During the show there are times when you will see an icon appear on the screen and at this time you can switch angles using your remote control.

The DVD is web enabled and on insertion into a DVD equipped PC, a web browser will appear.

There is also a bonus video of 'Gimme'

Overall, this is an excellent DVD and one I will watching over and over again

Highly Recommended!!!

This DVD is released by Eagle Vision (EREDV156),a division of Eagle-Rock Entertainment PLC.
