Incubus: Look Alive

Closest DVD to a live show ever! Blu-Ray is a must. Brilliant footage, very sharply edited and mixed - sound is incredible in surround; makes an art form of the live show visuals alone. Amazing live performances of all of Light Grenades (except LG and Pendulous threads), of Megalomaniac, Pistola, a crazy tripped out version of Redefine. After a totally gripping beginning kicked off perfectly by Dig, we wander through Iceland, Europe, Dubai and Israel with the boys. Then we reach the United States, they perform at home, Mike goes through surgery and his brutal playing recovery and back at it on the road. I definitely appreciated the cutting between different shows on the world tour. Ben Kenney lends a presence that elevates the whole sound. You can really see/hear what a good fit he is. No hate towards Alex, of course. Incubus could never be what it is to me without him, but evolution/change in art, as in life, is inevitable. Anyway, the boys speak for themselves about their tunes and what an amazing ride the band has had. I imagine they invested quite a bit of energy into making this DVD. I'm sure it will VASTLY widen their audience even more. It sheds such light on their great personal characters, personalities and the impetus behind Brandon's songwriting. All in all, a brilliantly produced DVD. It ends on the perfect bittersweet note, worthy of my all time one-and-only fave rock band. Props to the fans who attended 90 shows!

I have always heard of Incubus, but when I got this DVD I didn't know what to expect. Watching this I was completely amazed. I have never heard a band sound so good live before! They have quickly become my favorite band and you'll see why in this DVD. It's a more personal look into touring with the band. You get to see behind the scenes and the incredible live performances. Brandon Boyd has a voice that never fails to surprise me. The talent of Mike and his knowledge of so many different instruments is so impressive. The band as a whole is a step above everyone else and this DVD does not fail to show that. I've seen them live and can attest to the fact that what you see in this video is what you get at a live show. They do, in fact, sound that good live and that's all the more reason anyone should buy this.

I was really impressed by the production of the dvd... The quality of the edition, performance of the band, and feature images of places they visited is a guarantee of a great quality entertainment! For those who were there, at the concerts of the Light Grenades Tour, all the feelings of joy and pure happiness rise up again. Look Alive is certainly somethings that says with sight what can't be said with words.

Well...this is suppose to be my first review and I'll try to put my best on it, because this is a very good DVD. Nice filming and scenario with live footage filmed from different corner of world and places they've been. Last year I've seen them in concert and let me tell you that seeing this material makes me want to see more and more of them in a live show. This is a must have for every fan around the world...

all i got

If you are a Nirvana fan and buy the box set "With the lights out" for sure you have hours and hours of entertaiment, get into the most intimate and early Cobain its sort of a discovery, and gives you tons of new thoughts about the band and their music. On the other hand, if you are being introduced into the band, you wont understand most of the product, and you'll get bored with revisited songs, garage sound, and different versions of the same play again and again. You better get "Nevermind". In this review, you better get "Make yourself" The new incubus release "Light Grenades", its probably the second worst of the band, with a couple of good hits like "dig", the rest feels like choosen to fill the record, than for complete the idea, concept or whatever they tried to... "Look Alive" makes an effort to give a new hearing of those songs, of course its the hook of the band performances, some nice old tracks live, and all of them presuming exotic travels....however does not work at all. Fans: Its more of what you dig, oh and got to say, the sound quality its worth the price, five stars to it...buy it!...probably did already. Beginners: Hear some samples, watch the Love Hurts vid, and if you like what you see...get the morning view sessions, its a long way to get here and you may not want to finish it. PS. Wheres the Booklet?..,and sorry for the bad spelling, greetings from Mexico

I have been a huge incubus fan since around 2003. I loved their tight punchy funk/rock sound,from Mike's creative acoustic and electric guitar passages to Dirk's percussive bass line creations. Ever since Dirk left the band, I've been stuggling to regain the level excitement for their new music as I had for their older stuff. "Look Alive" has provided the elixir I needed to get it back. Musically, this DVD is still the "new" Incubus, but it showcases how their "new" sound has become more refined and nuanced. Brandon's charisma is stonger than ever and Ben is now fully blended into the band. All these refinements fill out the void the first two post-Dirk releases seemed to have. In the mean time the Video showcases their travels, and they use some of their experimental instrumental stuff as a backdrop to the video when their not on stage. Very worthwhile!!!

I have seen Incubus live twice and this DVD was like seeing them again except from angles that i could never have imagined. Good sound quality and great cinematography. Only complaint is that they go into these random episodes of travel around the world during their set and show stupid stuff that did nothing but help me realize how weird of people the band members of Incubus actually are...If you like their music and enjoy their live performace then I suggest purchasing this DVD. despite how weird of people they are, they put on one hell of a performance

Voici un dvd bien sympa et un concert du tonnerre! Evidemment pour les fans du groupe et de rock assez moderne!

Incubus is my favorite (non-Canadian) band, and as they never seem to stop by Montreal, I make a point of getting all their DVDs. If you are an Incubus fan, or just loved Light Grenades, don't wait to buy this DVD! It's just awesome. These guys are such talented musicians and great performers that you can't be disappointed by the live footage. There is also plenty of candid, behind-the-scene type footage of them touring, which is both hilarious and inspiring. To old and new fans alike, or to anyone who like great, unique music, this is definitely a must-have (also check out "Alive at Red Rocks" for awesome live performance footage).
