Black Dahlia Murder Majesty DVD



I'm aware that the Black Dahlia Murder 'Majesty,' DVD came out back in May, but I only had the opportunity to see some of it last night. Instead of watching the live set (I've seen them before) we decided to watch the documentary, which gave a glimpse into the life of Black Dahlia Murder on the road.



The beginning of the documentary painted a rather boring picture of the band, who almost seemingly never changed their daily routine, which included: eating food, smoking weed, and peeing in bottles in the car. But as the video continued Black Dahlias Murder's antics on tour began to feel homely, as if that's what you would be doing if you went on tour with your friends. The video also delves into the lives of their tour managers, Metalblade execs, sound guys, etc. showing that there is much more to what their fans get to see every night.

Highlights include: The Gorilla suit, a roller blader almost falling, Black Dahlia Murder bong, Jagermeister, and the fucking bassist long boarding in just about every city under the sun. Oh yeah, the music is good, too!

Below is my personal favorite Black Dahlia Murder song 'Elder Misanthropy,' live.
