Death Cab fans won't be disappointed
Chances are if you're reading this then you're probably already a Death Cab For Cutie fan. If not, this DVD is a pretty good introduction to the band (although it doesn't contain anything from the new album 'Plans' which seems to be taking Death Cab to a wider audience). I've been into them for a few years now so my review is probably a bit biased. The DVD is a basic mixture of live performances (mainly from the Transatlanticism album but a few older ones too such as 'Prove My Hypotheses') and pretty in-depth interviews about everything from touring in general, history of the band and stories about where the ideas came from for certain songs. So in that sense it's a fairly standard structure for a music DVD.
The DVD also contains the usual bonus features such as deleted scenes and a pretty good acoustic set.
There's nothing revolutionary or particularly innovative here but it's a must for Death Cab For Cutie fans and definitely one to consider for anyone into indie/indie-rock/alternative music. -

Death Cab Dissapointment
At the start of the film, we were told that the film would be about a band on the road and it certainly was-just that! As a band 'Death Cab For Cutie' are excellent, however as being coveraged in a documentary, they're not as interesting as I first thought they would be. The documentary is structured with a short interview segment placed between a full coverage song by DCFC on stage. This structuring gets repeitive after a while, there are some lighter moments, when you hear anecdotes from the members of the band, however they don't seem to expand from this.
If you're a fan you will possibly like this, however as a pretty interested fan, after viewing this, I felt rather dissapointed. Nevermind, I'm still happy I gave it a go.
Oh yeah and there are some extras on the disc too, but they're not that great, Andy Cam is the best extra, it at least gives characterisation to the band members. -
