Movie Reviews of Nirvana - Live! Tonight! Sold Out!
Movie Review: The definitive Nirvana experience...
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember buying this on VHS back in the 90's after it was released and being blown away by the footage - it captured the energy and attitude of Nirvana so perfectly. This was a project that was started during Kurt's lifetime yet was finished after his departure and it still managed to convey the original concept of the late Cobain.
The highlights are many on this great video, but among the best are:
1) The performance of 'Territorial Pissings' on a British TV appearance instead of the announced song, 'Lithium'. The set ends with the band trashing the instruments and walking off stage to the sound of feedback, which has the TV host plugging his ears.
2) A Top of the Pops appearance that has the band mockingly throwing their instruments around and blatantly playing off key to the prerecorded 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. Kurt sings the song in a high-pitched scream during parts and also a low almost operatic tone, changing the words at points and almost swallows the microphone during the 'Hello, Hello, Hello, How low'.
3) The live footage of the band destroying their instruments during the song 'Endless Nameless' is some of the most powerful stuff on the video. Kurt's heart-wrenching yells accompanied by images of him throwing himself around with his guitar wrecklessly, jumping into speakers and drum kits seems to display not only the attitude of Nirvana as a band, but also reveals the inner turmoil of Cobain.
There is really not any dull moments on this video and the interviews are great. The DVD version comes with some extra footage which is nice bonus material, but the original video is the real gem. A must have for any fan of the band.
RECOMMENDATION: If you don't already own all of Nirvana's albums be sure not to forget the 1992's 'Incesticide', a release of odds and ends that really captures the sloppy brilliance that was Nirvana.
