This review is from: Blue Man Group - Audio (DVD Audio)
Fans of Blue Man Group's excellent Audio CD may well wonder why they should consider "upgrading" to their new DVD release. Seriously, how much better could it be in Dolby Digital or DTS surround? Holy cow! After giving the DVD a couple runs around the block, I can only describe the original Audio CD recording as anemic by comparison. The 5.1 mix opens up the sound field, completely enveloping you in the "wall of drum" sound that's at the core of Audio. The .1 bass extension will work your sub HARD - so much so that you may have to rethink vibration isolation for your DVD player. (There were several segments where the drum grooves were giving my player the jitters!) As for extra content, there was quite a bit more than I expected. The Tubes "cat video" was fun, as was a video interview with the Blue Man FOUNDers. Bumper video segments on the menus are very cool. BMG's remix of Last Train to Transcentral and some very funny radio promos round out the package. If you liked Audio and own a 5.1-capable system, you need this disc! If you have no clue who BMG are, but like techno-tribal grooves that will make you move, then prepare to become a fan.
