VICTOR VON ACACIA STRAIN

 Wednesday, January 27th, 2010 at 12:29pm by

I have seen The Acacia Strain’s new DVD, The Most Known Unknown, and it is good. Honestly, I’ve never been a huge TAS fan – I’ve always respected them and liked them, but I don’t spend a lot of my free time listening to them. But this DVD made me like them a whole lot more. I shouldn’t have to tell you that David Brodsky did a great job with the live footage. But the band also just sounds so good. “Whoa! Shut it Down” and “Skynet” have never sounded so heavy. Now I really wanna go to a TAS concert.

While I wait for that to happen, you can check out a clip from the DVD, of the song “Dr. Doom.” Unfortunately it’s not embeddable, but clicking on the pretty screen cap below will take you there.

The Most Known Unknown comes out February 16 on Prosthetic.

    Metalsucks doesn’t even know how stoked I am for this. Like, incredibly insanely fucking stoked. I need a goddamn time machine.

    You guys need to have a contest where someone can win this, and you have to make me the winner.

    Fuck, I’m pretty sure I’m going to buy this. I haven’t seen TAS live but from what I hear they tear it up.

    i love their music, but wish they wouldn’t dress like extras in a lil wayne video. don’t get me wrong, i don’t really care about a bands fashion, i just think they would be better off without that shit.
