Motzart's Video collection? December 26, 2005 Tunnelpet (Forestville, CA, US) 19 out of 35 found this review helpful
I hate to part company with the other reviewers here, as well as the Amazon comments but this NOT a must have. I am huge fan of New Order and Joy Division and think they are one of the most important modern western popular bands of the last, almost thirty years for all their well-known contributions to existentilism and furturism in alternative, independent rock. Basically inventing post-punk, being one of the inventors of the dance-music, electronica scene a decade before most other bands and accidentaly inventing "goth" music along the way. Not to mention being excellent musicians with a very artsy, deep and humorous sensitivity.
But, because they are such a good band it is glarringly obvious that the "rock video" is nothing more than a corporate music business era chore that bands just have to do as part of the job.
Film critic Rodger Ebert once said the rock video is "empty."
Here, they aren't so much empty as New Order's music is so good, just pointless. I find myself almost angry that a beautiful song such as "Ceremony" would have such a terrible video like this(incidently, I do not know what the viewer below is talking about...there is no original version of the "Ceremony" video...just this thing). An aweful, unwatchable piece of useless garbage featuring a fellow walking around with a trashbag on his head. I guess that is a reference to the thought process of music video directors. Not sure what else it could be. I could only stomach 40 seconds of this filth. I'm afraid after listening to this tune for more than ten years, both Joy Division's and New Order's...the images in mine and in other musician's heads will have to do. Unwatchable. Trash. The new "Tempation" video....embarrasing.
Watch their concert videos, go see them live or better yet, think for yourself.
There are a few winners..."Confusion" is a classic and a great video as well as little bit of music history.
"Perfect Kiss" is cool but I've seen it enough and life is short. "Touched By the Hand of God" is very funny..but ..again..life is short. The only thing I hadn't seen before and actually kind of liked was the Gina Birch "Crystal"..that was a slightly cool workday music industry bit. Not important art in anyway....but better than Franz Fernidad peeing on an art gallery wall like the Nazis used to do.
Videos?
As for the documentary on the other disc. This is much better but is almost 13 years old. There are some excellent Joy Division clips here. Why don't we have a full DVD of all the Joy Division footage in the world yet? You get many of the same videos on the other disc played in full again on THIS disco too..in case you're someone like me who hated them enough the first time. Some great stuff, a bit of live Joy Division, great early live versions of 'Blue Monday", "Tempation"..and yes.."Ceremony". The interviews are great as New Order speaks like real musicians and their collaborators are an interesting bunch making up a lot of what urban nightlife music culture has been from the late seventies until today on both sides of the Atlantic.
This DVD is titled 'Item' and not 'A Collection' December 15, 2005 Anonymous (USA) 23 out of 24 found this review helpful
I have just received this outstanding two-disc DVD set today, and it is indeed the New Order "Item" product and not "A Collection" as incorrectly listed here on Amazon's product page.
This two-disc "Item" DVD set includes both "A Collection" and "New Order Story."
To reiterate, I ordered ASIN/Amazon product number B000ANVNHQ as listed on this page and received the two-disc DVD set titled "Item."
Below are the contents of each DVD.
Disc 1, "A Collection" contains the following videos:
Confusion The Perfect Kiss Shellshock State Of The Nation Bizarre Love Triangle True Faith Touched By The Hand Of God Blue Monday '88 Run World In Motion Regret Ruined In A Day World Spooky 1963 Crystal 60 Miles An Hour Here To Stay Krafty Jetstream Waiting For The Siren's Call Round & Round - USA/Patty Regret - Baywatch Crystal - Gina Birch Version Ceremony Temptation
Disc 2 contains the documentary "New Order Story."
This is a must-own set for New Order fans.
Repeat: this product is "Item" and not "A Collection."
Para Los Fanaticos Del New Wave December 6, 2005 Giancarlo Cornejo (Lima Peru) 5 out of 17 found this review helpful
Son dos discos de coleccion, con los videos de las mejores canciones de esta banda inglesa, en el primer disco vienen los videos incluyendo los ultimos como Krafty!!!...lo que si es una lastima es que el documental incluido en el segundo disco no tenga subtitulos...bueno, en resumen si eres fanatico de esta banda y te gusta la onda new wave...que esperas?
It's Too Real To Be Shown To Someone I Don't Know November 17, 2005 Trevor Seigler (South Carolina) 15 out of 16 found this review helpful
For almost thirty years, the collective group known first as Joy Division and then New Order have made an impact on the world of pop music that is interesting and profound. Shunning the very trappings of fame that most bands would kill for, they have remained true to their own elusive muse.
The music videos they've made have always been stand-outs. From the early hectic nature of "Confusion" to the slickness of "Bizarre Love Triangle" and the explosive "True Faith" and the oddity of "World", the boys and girl of the band have never made a dull video. Sure, some aren't as great as others ("Shellshock" and "World In Motion" spring to mind), but the overall effect of having every NO music video ever made including the new ones from "Waiting For The Siren's Call" is more than worth the occasionally bad video.
And the additions of new videos for classic tracks like "Ceremony" and "Temptation" (as well the infamous "Regret" on the beach with the cast of Baywatch) is fantastic.
If that wasn't enough (and I'm assuming the reviews are for ITEM, the two-disc collection), you get the 1994 "NewOrderStory", which is by far one of the most interesting (if obtuse) "documentaries" ever committed to film. As weird and wonderful as the band themselves, it makes a perfect companion to the 2002 film "24 Hour Party People".
All in all, this is a must for any NO fan. The only grumbling point I would have is the non-inclusion of the few Joy Division live performances or the video for "Love Will Tear Us Apart", but the NO Story has two scenes from the band's early days with Ian Curtis as well as the video (which is interrupted by an annoying frontman from a certain band named after a US spy plane from the Sixties).
So if you love groundbreaking music videos and getting a look at one of the most enigmatic bands of the modern rock era, ITEM is for you. You can't go wrong with New Order.
