I've been a fan of the Oils for a long time -- before Killing Joke
actually -- since _10,9,8..._ came out. Frankly I still think that was
their peak, and most of their other records rate just below. Low point
was _Earth and Sun and Moon_ -- AllMusic thinks it's their best go figure.
In Region 1 at least there is a promo+live video DVD comp. The live
tracks are great, even the canned live promo ones are worthwhile. The
other promos are so-so. Still, it has about 50 different tracks and was
$15-$20 with shipping/tax.
I think all the stuff on this new DVD is different, certainly most.
Maybe we'll get this one in the USA too, but I'm set up for PAL DVDs
(and all-region PAL plays on a PC anyway).
