Iron Maiden: 'Death On The Road'

Some cynical folk believe the burgeoning music-DVD market to be little more than brazen cashing-in at the expense of loyal fans, passing off shoddily-filmed live shows and “exclusive backstage footage” that are ultimately just cheap EPK’s. Every so often there’s a release that actually justifies the format, however. Take this 3-disc limited edition set from Iron Maiden for instance, showcasing the metal legends’ performance in Dortmund from December 2003 in crisp 5.1 surround sound audio (oh, your neighbours will just love you if you have a half-decent subwoofer).
Extras: Award-winning director Matthew Amos‘s documentary provides fascinating insight into the scale of getting an arena tour on the road, backed up with music vids, design sketches, and fan interviews.
