Movie Reviews of Depeche Mode - One Night In Paris (The Exciter Tour 2001)
Movie Review: To be avoided.
Summary: 1 Stars
For me, this is naybe THE one Depeche Mode release to avoid using any money on. First off, there's the issue with the performance - like many others have noted, Dave's voice is completely wasted here. Here more growls than sings the songs, he can't get anywhere near the original key for most songs, and he frequently has problems even hitting the right notes. There's the odd exception with "When The Body Speaks" which actaully sounds very good, but songs like "Personal Jesus", "Black Celebration" and "Never Let Me Down Again" are almost butchered.
It doesn't help matters that sound is really poor on my DVD. I don't know if different versions exist, I bought mine when it was released back in 2002 (so that would make it original edition) and the audio sounds like someone stuffed my speakers with pillows - it's muffled, dry, and the vocal is often way buried in the mix (maybe an attempt to cover up the issues with that). The audio sounds decidedly off - something I have not experienced with any of my other DVDs.
It's a bit of a pity, because the DVD features a nice selection of Depeche Mode highlights, including not only the major hits but also favorites such as "Halo", "It Doesn't Matter Two" and "Black Celebration". But the performance is so poor and the audio so bad that I can't recommend this to anybody. If the audio had been good, I would have given 2 stars, so maybe there are later versions that sound better. Go buy the stellar "Devotional" video and the thrilling "101" CDs instead.
Summary of Depeche Mode - One Night In Paris (The Exciter Tour 2001)
Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 10/09/2002Despite their 20-plus years in the music business, One Night in Paris demonstrates that Depeche Mode are by no means dinosaurs of synth-infused rock. Directed by longtime artistic collaborator Anton Corbijn, the concert footage concisely captures the atmosphere of the show that was seen by over 1.5 million fans in 2001. Though there is an obsessive focus on the half-naked Dave Gahan and the "fallen angel" Martin Gore throughout, at various points the camera withdraws to expose a huge screen at the back of the stage. Combined with the angry stage lighting, the projection films (which include footage of a goldfish swimming in a tank for "In Your Room") provide an added epic feel. Predominantly made up of songs from Exciter, the show also includes old favorites such as "Enjoy the Silence" and "Personal Jesus." The visual and audio quality is excellent, and the bonus material on the second DVD (particularly the interviews with the band and tour crew) neatly complements the first disc. --John Galilee
