It was just the flu that did that, he's perfectly fine now. I went seeing the yesterday and they were better than ever, the gig was delayed till yesterday because matt had the flu. They even played a song off the new album that there bringing out, it was insane!

There's a difference between "helping resurrect" the guitar solo and simply "resurrecting" it. Besides, it's not meant to be taken at face-value. Yes, they are doing solos, big deal, right ? Unlike most of the hard rock bands nowadays, Bullet is doing technical and awe-inspiring solos.

Though, I don't think the solo thing should be emphasized that much either, despite having just defended Bullet. DragonForce, Trivium, blah blah blah, all have solos, and most of them are amazing as well.

When will people learn? ....being a performer isn't all about making the perfect solo's ... playing like on the CD. it's about the vibe of being at a live concert which is what fans/people want.

Getting a good vibe is way more important then playing everything flawlessly.

I like to see this band live because there's always alot of energy in the crowd... same goes for bands like Flogging Molly (Irish Folk/Punk band) and bands like Rise Against... just great

when will u learn... u dont get the energy unless u play it tight and flawlessly. improvisation is good. but it should be done properly.
vibe is proportional to the talent and how well u play it doesnt depend too much on how much u r headbanging on stage.

The few blurry and fuzzy camara shots on Live At Brixton don't necessarily have to be a terrible thing like everyone is claiming. Gives it more of a rough and live feel. I thought the video editing and audio mixing were phenomenal. Not sure why some would say the vocals were drowned out by the music... maybe if you have the audio going through your two 3-watt speakers on the front of your television. This sounded terrific on my BOSE and Philips surround sound systems. A very good mixing job.

Live At Brixton... an amazing show. Not sure why so many people hate on these guys. They are very talented song writers and musicians. I do have a question though... why does everyone say they aren't metal? Sick drums and wicked guitar solos and riffs with some screaming thrown in... what's so NOT metal about it? Are you saying they aren't heavy enough to be metal or what?

Anyway, good DVD and great band... rock on.

I'll just say a few things here...firstly BFMV aren't emo. They are in no way emo, nor do they sound it. Secondly, stop getting so worked up about the comment on resurrecting the guitar solo, it was just one comment. Tbh what i find more impressive is the way Matt Tuck manages to play some quite heavily syncopated rhythms and lead breaks at times, whilst singing. This is more impressive to me, as the solos are more technical than metal of a few years ago, but also not the most technical solos around. On the other hand, please stop saying they suck because you think their solos are easy, therefore they must suck because that just isn't the case. I read someone's comment on here about how they suck and that you should listen to Children of Bodom for kickass solos...wel in actual fact i consider the BFMV solos alot better than the COB solos because the BFMV solos sound alot more structured, and aren't just about speed or putting in as many techniques as possible. And before you ask yes i can play a few COB solos, but i don't particularly like the band and haven't bothered to learn anymore.

they do are emo, their lyrics are extremely emotive, and when matt sings clean, his voice is even more emotic, he sings from the heart. they are one new genre, as the thrash metal was a combination of punk with havy metal, emocore(emotiona hardcore), its a combination of metal and hardcore with some emo stuff, like lyrics and voice type, also i think COB has some reat solo, and BFMV wouldnt beat them, thought they made up some amazing riffs and BFMV dont, hope you all understud me, im new in english, kind of learning, thought i live near usa

1. Bullet did not ressurect the guitar solo.
2. The reason we like the screaming is cos it has passion and attitude in it. (to the Maiden guy)
3. Bullet aren't emo. They aren't Pussy enough and emos have no guitar solos.
4. It doesn't matter if a solo is a bit messed up. Im sure Maiden, Metallica, Slayer etc. make at least 1 mistake every show.

But backl to the topic, this DVD was pretty amazing. Ive never seen em live, so this is a consalation prize
