From Amazon.com: Still Smokin' is a comprehensive collection of promos from hip- hop's "vatos locos," Cypress Hill, spanning their 10-year, seven-album career. Following a brace of songs recorded live at San Francisco's Fillmore auditorium, this selection settles into a tried and tested formula for half of its running time, using ghetto-real grainy footage of the moody trio stalking inner city streets. "When the Ship Goes Down" branches out into conceptual territory with a three-minute epic concerning internecine gang warfare that breaks up the band's performance. Set in a derelict warehouse, the hardcore romp of "Can't Get the Best of Me" is reminiscent of Fight Club's basement brawls. The set ends with Cypress Hill's most imaginative video to date, the hallucinogenic horror of "Puppet Master." In an American gothic set, guest star Dr. Dre is done up like a Papal Grim Reaper while the gold-painted and prosthetically enhanced B-Real makes like the Devil. --Chris Campion, Amazon.co.uk
Additional Features: The DVD's interactive menus feature a startling 3-D rendition of Cypress Hill's skull logo that flies through the screen belching smoke like Bluebeard's ghost. But as it occurs at the selection of every option, it severely slows down the ability to browse quickly through the disc. Chapter access is provided to each of the 27 songs on the disc, which are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and PCM stereo for the full concussive Cypress Hill experience. Extra features include a 30-minute So You Wanna Be a Superstar TV special in which the band and their fans reflect on their 10-year history. --Chris Campion, Amazon.co.uk
null: Just too good to say anything. Wordless. Just think a live-version of Hits From The Bong and get to the mood and you're gone with it. This is what it should be here in Finland ;)
Still Smokin' Is Right \o....\c: This Is A Definate For Any Cypress Hill Fan.This Is Excellent It Starts Off "Live At The Fillmore" Those Who Have The Live At The Fillmore Album Will Be Familiar With These Tracks But Will Now Be Able To View 7 Of Them,I Think They Should Have Put The Whole Concert But This Is Enough To Ask For.On This Tape It Has Videos From All Albums From "Cypress Hill" It Has Videos For "The Phunky Feel One","How I Could Just Kill A Man","Hand On The Pump","Real Estate","Stoned Is The Way Of The Walk" And "Latin Lingo" From "Cypress Hill II:Black Sunday" The Videos Which Appear Are "When The Ship Goes Down","I Ain't Goin' Out Like That" And "Insane In The Brain" The Tracks That Appear From The Album "Cypress Hill III:Temple Of Boom" Are "Illusions" And "Throw Your Set In The Air",From Cypress Hill IV "Tequila Sunrise" And "Dr. Greenthumb" And From "Skull & Bones","Rock Superstar" And "Can't Get The Best Of Me".You Must Buy This It Even Got Tracks From "Unreleased And Revamped",These Are "Throw Your Hands In The Air" And "Boom Biddy Bye Bye(Fugees Remix)" And A Spanish Version Of "How I could Just Kill A Man" From The Spanish Album,Also Features "Puppet Master" Featuring Dr. Dre Which Appeared On A Soul Assasins Album.Its Brilliant I'm Tellin' Ya Your Not EVER Going To See Most Of These Videos Anywhere Else,TV Has Been So \o...\c Stupid Not To Show These Vids Regulary Of The Band That After Ten Years Is "Still Smokin'".
Need more live footage: This dvd is basically comprised of 3 parts: 1) Six songs from the Fillmore show in San Francisco 2) Almost all of Cypress' music videos 3) Superstar documentary/show Overall, this is a solid dvd that is worth the money. My main beef is the fact that they didn't put the entire Fillmore show on it, b/c the 6 performances are off the hook. Having most of Cypress' videos is cool, but I don't really watch them too much...especially the last one with Dre. Finally, the Superstar show is also included. This is basically Cypress' "Behind the Music" put on a dvd. Definitely worth watching.
A missing one: All of the songs are ok. But "Stoned Raiders" is missing, it's one of the Cypress Hill's best songs, i wonder why it's not included. If i didn't give it 5 stars, it's because navigation menus are slow. In conlusion, buy it, it's pretty enjoyable.
"OFF THE CHAIN": CYPRESS HILL IS OFF THE HIZZIEE! THE WAY B REAL FLOWS HIS RHYMES IS MADD CRAZY. HIS VOICE JUST RIPPS LIKE NO OTHER. BO BO GOES OFF LIKE MADD CRAZY. THESE THREE KATS BE RIPPING IT UP. CYPRESS HILL IS ONE OF THE MOST UNIQUE GROUPS THERE IS. I'VE BEEN FEEL'N C-HILL SINCE THEY ROSE UP. THEIR STYLE IS JUST BANG'N! ONCE YOU GET HOOKED ON C-HILL...YOU'LL FEEL WHAT I'M FEELING! C-HILL...B REAL...HOLD IT DOWN, PEACE THOUGHTOUT THE UNIVERSE... FAN FOE LIFE! THA R
