LIVE AT LAST

I bought this DVD about two years ago and that was mainly out of frustration for the lack of a new release by this band. Right now we're even two years further in time and still no new album !!! I really start to worry here because we are talking about one of my all time favourite bands and the wait lasts for almost 5 years now, so what can you say ?

Fortunately this great release soothed some of the pain I suffer as this is a terrific choise of songs by this band and they also took care of a very good and pleasant bonus DVD that gives a nice insight of what the band is like and how the fans feel about them. I'm very pleased with the choise of songs eventhough some of my very favourites are missing (Nighttime Sky, Fade to grey, New Moon and Traces). On the other hand: many of my very favourites are on this DVD (Seeds of hate, Pure, Comatose and Broken Wave) so that evens things out in a sort of 50-50 score. Another nice thing is that I like almost every Enchant song so I could hardly get disappointed anyway. I always considered it the very strong point of this band: the fact they produce no poor compositions and that's why I love them.

There are a few minor aspects about this DVD that prevent me from giving it 5 stars. I think the sound as well as the picture quality leaves to be desired. It's not hopeless but I've experienced better than this. And that's a pity when it's a very favourite band and you hope for a perfect 10 and have to settle for less. But the choise of songs and the bonus DVD are all in all more important to me and make me still give this 4 stars (4,2).
