Mixing rap, rock, reggae, and funk, 311's frantic and furious music has won them a devoted following, and this video shows them doing what they do best -- tearing up the stage in front of an amped-up audience. 311: Enlarged to Show Detail features the band performing a dozen songs, including "Freakout," "Homebrew," "All Mixed Up," and "Down." The video also comes with a bonus CD, featuring four otherwise unreleased songs.
Where to start....
First off...words can't even begin to explain how awesome this DVD was. I mean i know it is just a "documentary" type movie but if you actually start to watch it--it grows into more than that. You begin to love the band even if you didn't like them before.
The movie contains mainly concert footage and interviews with the band. But added on are some truly HILARIOUS moments that were recorded on tour from the band using just a home-camera. These guys are not like any other band. This movie shows people how 311 manages to keep it serious with their music--but at the exact same time, screw off and have the times of their lives. It's not just all about music to these guys. Its about music and having a good time. Even during the interviews they get crazy and say things that are funny--even if they arn't supposed to be funny.
The DVD extras contain 4 music videos for "Down", "Don't Stay Home", "Homebrew", and "All Mixed Up". It also has a trailer for 311's "Enlarged To Show Detail 2" home video, and comes with a bonus CD with 4 unreleased tracks.
311's "Enlarged To Show Detail" is something you can't pass up. If your a hardcore 311 fan, like myself, you can't live without this. And if you are not a huge fan or even a fan at all, you will still enjoy this movie.
The movie runs for about an hour. It does have a parental advisory on it and is not for kids. It contains explicit language throughout and has extremely explicit drug content.
