Brutally Beautiful

Although the dizzying camera angles tend to obstruct and weaken the strength of the group's performance, the enthusiasm of North America's best pop-punk band shines through. Mac is hyper enough as it is, and the Laura Ballance bounce is at full beat. All those great songs are played from which this great group was made. This video definitely doesn't "slack".

Great live performance and interesting, informal interview

I agree that the over-active camera work on this footage gets pretty exhausting after a while but the performance of the band here is, of course, amazing. I don't know how they themselves would rank it on their own scale but they rock solidly and brilliantly here the whole time. The interview at the end is fascinating, too, both for the band's incredible likability and charm (particularly the lovely and talented Laura) and for the informal way they treat the press and all the sad, post-Nirvana hype that they shouldn't have had to answer questions about. Sure, Nirvana was a great band but why compare them to this other great band that have always done their own thing? I wish this group the best. We could use a lot more bands like them--funny, sincere, and best of all, great.

Fan of SUPERCHUNK? Then you'll love it

VHS, that ancient format. Yea, it's way too movin' camera stuff. However, how many chances do you get to see them live on your TV? Not that often. Do get, if you don't already have it, their excellent DVD collection. Meanwhile, this has what the DVD doesn't, well, this show. And it swings. You may have to look away on occasion or even just listen if you get car sick with movement but, still, this show is worth havin', particularly if yer a big SUPERCHUNK fan, which I sure am. Two guitar sound that totally fleshes out their alt (post?) punk rock sound. And darned good alt punk rock songs. Energetic without bein' punk rock, really, a classic American rock band of the 90's.
