DVD Description
This DVD features Motorhead's entire set from their Teatro Caupolican, Santiago, Chile concert, recorded on April 9, 2011, and includes lots of bonus footage and extras. The DVD’s title is a humorous take on the name from their most recent CD, The Wörld Is Yours, which came out earlier this year and was one of the band’s most successful records.

Format:Blu-ray
There is only really one complaint I have about this release, which prevents me from giving it a 5 star rating: the main concert is in black and white. I really cannot see the justification for this, because it certainly does not enhance the viewing experience, and you lose half the effect of the on-stage lighting. If an option was included whereby you could switch the colour back on, I cannot imagine anybody would choose not to do so.
Ill-conceived black and white format aside, this is an excellent release. Sound quality is really good, and a considerable improvement on "Better Motorhead than Dead". I have the Blu-Ray version, and played through a home cinema system it sounds awesome, particularly the drums. I think Stagefright still has the edge on this as the definitive live Motorhead video, but this release has less of the rapid editing that some people felt let Stagefright down. In addition to a full concert, there are shorter sequences from two other concerts, both of which are in colour. Interesting version of Born to Raise Hell (one of my favourites) with Mike Monroe joining in with the vocals, where the really tight music is counterbalanced by backing vocals which are seriously off-key. Doesn't bother me too much, but it is quite noticeable.
So having established that you should buy it, the question arises of which format? Blu-ray and DVD formats are the same price on Amazon, so without further thought I opted for Blu-ray. However, had I paused to read the small-print, I would have noticed that the DVD is in fact a DVD-CD package, in the same vein as the excellent Boneshaker release from their 25th Anniversary concert. The Blu-ray version does not include the CD, but will obviously feature a sharper picture. Actually the picture on the Blu-Ray version is not THAT sharp, and given the annoying black-and-white photography, I think I would rather sacrifice some of the definition to have the CD as well. A more expensive variant with other bits and pieces included is also available for those who like that sort of thing, but for most people I would imagine DVD-CD combination will be the one to go for.

Format:DVD
This a great dvd showcasing the essence of rock n roll in its purest form.
Motorhead have been consistently the best rock n roll band on the face of the earth for 36 years and this dvd/album proves they still have what it takes to send a shiver down your spine...
The main gig is excellent,well filmed and a great sound with the small irritating fact of it being black and white.It would of been better in colour especially if you purchase the blue ray as it sort of defeats the point of HD if it has no colour....
The interviews a great and as well as some stuff we have heard before we get some interesting chat from the band....
Manchester is the main let down as for some reason the band have been slowed down?Try playing youtube fan footage of the gig at the same time as the dvd and you can see the actual performance was around 7 seconds faster on each song....I have no idea why this is?Its common knowledge with Motorheadbangers that whilst still playing fast and tight the band have slowed down a touch over the years but as soon as you hear this you know its not the bands playing straight away....
Over all if the footage from Manchester and the no colour issues were corrected this would be a five star for me and maybe even there greatest dvd yet.......
Buy it its good!
Roll on vol 2!!

I will keep it to the point. If you are a Motorhead fan then this is for you. IF not, then leave it alone.
What you get is one full concert from Motorhead in April this year and highlights from 2 gigs in 2010.
A wide range of material covered here from following albums -
Overkill, Spades, Bastards,World is yours,Kiss of Death,We are Motorhead,No Remorse,Motorizer,Iron Fist, Another perfect day and a few more thrown in.
Main feature is in Black and White but not a problem as the other 2 gigs are in full colour. Great interviews on the DVD and the Double CD Live album is the best since 1998's live release - I have been listening to it on repeat.
Excellent package ,excellent value....................only 4 stars because the sound on the bonus feature especially Manchester is bollocks pure and simple. The sound is slowed down and out of sync with the video. Not too clever.
Can't wait for volume 2 with 'One to sing the blues, Damage case, Whorehouse Blues, I'll be your sister, Born to lose etc.'

it's Motorhead, fools
Lemmy may have had to cancel a show recently due to a "hand injury" - koff, koff, but that hasn't derailed the Motorhead machine for long. Read more
