Faithless are a UK group of musicians whose music is described by one of their band as a cross between trip-hop & dance. Their songs include God is a DJ, Reverence, Insomnia, Salva Mea, We Come 1 & One Step Too Far. The four members of Faithless are Maxi Jazz, Sister Bliss, Jamie Catto & Rollo. For No Roots, Faithless were joined by LSK. Faithless have released four albums of their own work, called Reverence, Sunday 8PM, Outrospective & No Roots. Each of these albums was also rereleased with a bonus disc of remixes & alternative versions under a different name- Irreverence, Saturday 3AM, Reperspective & Everything Will Be Alright Tomorrow respectively. A new single was released on June 2004, called Mass Destruction & debuted at #7 in the UK. The album No Roots was released on the same month, which debuted at #1, becoming their highest charting album ever, beating Outrospective, Sunday 8PM & Reverence. It has been reported that Faithless are to split up after their current tour, which ends on 30 April 2005.

Firstly, I love Faithless & have been lucky enough to see them live umpteen times. Thats why I bought the dvd. The music on this dvd is great. The visuals on this dvd are almost unwatchable. They consist of:

2 second shot of Maxi Jazz 2 second shot of Sister Bliss 2 second shot of drummer 2 second shot of crowd 2 second shot of guitarist repeat the above ad nauseum for the whole dvd

I may put this dvd on again for the odd song, but it would be impossible to watch it all the way through. I dont think the camera lingers long enough on any one shot to appreciate what youre seeing. You could put it on in the background if no-one was really watching it though. Save your money & keep your memories intact.
