Just thought I'd repost this for anyone interested, from Braindead Webzine

"FUCK...I'M DEAD "Gore Grind Thrash Attack Live" Dvd
(No Escape Records - NE026)
Release date: 2006
Review: Drummers are usually the essential element and what makes a good grindcore band, how can you put on a good live show with just a drum machine?! Well Fuck... I'm Dead shows you how it's done on this intensely fast, blasting, thrashing and shrieking grindcore performance, all captured on video... The dvd opens with a silent menu so don't fiddle with your volume, but be prepared to get your head blasted off once you press play and the first song bursts out... Sound is quite excellent, clear, heavy, the guitar riffing ripping through your flesh, the low, sizzling bass tones, the ferocious vocals and the devastating programmed drums all come across in a pretty limpid way... So obviously this show is basically a plethora of really perverse and blasting grind tunes executed in a row... But Jay's foul-mouthed inter-song banter and song descriptions are also priceless! Filming and editing style is quite nice and dynamic too... Fast cuts, nice and pretty diverse alternating angles, some nice shaky camera movements and dirty zoom-ins combined with strobostropic lighting... All great stuff that totally fits the band's hysterical pace and outrageous sound! Some additional live shows are also included as bonuses, obviously rougher-looking but still nice to have, especially a performance aboard a boat which is particularly fun to watch! Also the same main show is also included as a seperate cd, maybe a different live set for the audio-cd would have been more interesting, but this is still pretty cool and sound is definitely awesome on this too of course... All in all Fuck... I'm Dead looks like one damn brutal and mindblowing live band, this dvd is definitely recommended if you want to experience the band without taking a trip all way to Australia! You can check out http://fuckimdead.noescaperecords.com/ for a video sample...
