Details: Amazon.ca 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 Special 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 From the Back Cover Cypress Hill, the pioneering Los Angeles-based group who bridged the gap between the hip-hop and alternative nations, is Still Smokin' on this psychobeta video collection.
