Jimmy Weasel - Sunday, 9 November 2003 - Print Version
Who knows what to expect from Bloodhound Gang? Nobody. Not even The Shadow. What we have here is a pile of film clips from the Beer Coaster album, with a great many brain rotting minutes of rock star behaviour in between.
It's poorly lit, worded & filmed. Comical in parts but a great effort to watch the whole shebang. The antics between the clips are so boorish that it makes watching the entire music production in one sitting doubtful.
The presentation/menu area has had little to no thought at all.
But I suppose, there's reason beyond eye candy to buy a DVD. But it's only from Beer Coaster era shenanigans. Compared to other band DVDs, like Primus, who, for example have a whole Plasticine/claymation theme to it, is to further pale the already weak production. They're just lucky I dig their antics.
Watching Jimmy Pop stomp around an old Work Camp in Germany is amusing though.
This isn't the glorious production I was hoping it would be. Still, I'm hanging out for Hooray for Groupies to be completed. With any luck. There'll be some kind of emphasis on effort & some live footage to go with

Every detail makes the story worth following somewhere. Cooking up microfiction and life lessons as we review film, music, books, theatre and other aspects of culture.
It's all intrigue and conspiracy.
Nipple protection from the elements?
Armpit hair needs a lair?
Bellybutton catching too many flies?
