The Review:

When I heard about a Voivod dvd, I was very excited since they’re been a favorite of mine since their Dimension Hatross album. This DVD, D-V-O-D-1 documents the bands "original lineup" from 1983-1991. Included on the dvd are all their videos until 1991, some rare raw live performances as well as some stellar studio performances. A majority of the live material was filmed at Montréal's Spectrum in 1988 & 1988.

Voivod was one of the first metal bands to utilize progressive elements and they pulled off everything in the studio in a live setting. This dvd is a must have for fans of Voivod as well as the more technical side of metal music. With the recent death of guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour, watching his performances are both fantastic for those that seen them live and for those of us that never did.
