Louder than war

Is it still available? Is it worth it?

I really like it, but if you are not a fan of Know Your Enemy then you should maybe think twice.

I'd say it's worth it, even if it is dominated by KYE tracks, I like the album but not nearly of it in one set.

i bought it from tesco for something stupid like 4.00 it was a bargain. its a good performance but as a music dvd its kinda shit i cant really explain it the extras are just a bit random and it doesnt flow. plus the bonus cuban tv bonus tracks are awful quality does anyone know why they didnt record the other songs or why they are only in such quality?

but on the whole id recommend it, some good performances on there

For me, the Channel 4 documentary 'Our Manics in Havana' remains the best document of the trip to Cuba.

Is Louder Than War region free PAL or Region 2? I'm just wondering because Leaving The 20th Century is advertised as being Region 2 but is in fact region free.

Aye it's worth it, I paid about £9 for it I think a few years ago after I wore the channel 4 version away on my video! The channel 4 was slightly different....and better.

It's worth it just for the performances of Miss Europa and Wattsville Blues. Damn great live tracks, and I love the audience participation (all grooving and dancing); the camera work is at its best on those bits too.

The main bad thing on the DVD is that they've chopped up the gig and give the rest of the tracks as "bonus tracks", with shitty sound and video quality.

For the performance of 'Found that Soul' you have the option of different camera angles (!)

And You Love Us and some others too.

If anyone has it please check out You Love Us and put on the camera angle from the side of the stage (it might be camera angle 2) and check out JDB's solo and Nicky's massive massive slime when JDB gets lost in the moment.

Classic Manics moment.

ya why did they do that!

It's worth buying for the Motown Junk/You Love Us performances alone.
