"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We are Tiamat from Sweden" Johan Edlund proudly proclaims as the no-nonsense atmospheric hard metal band, The Church of Tiamat, plunges into the opening song "Vote for Love." Recorded at Krzemionki TV Studio in Krakow, Poland January 13, 2005 this concert from the powerful cult group is excitingly filmed with gorgeous sweeps, fade-ins, fade-outs and lots of quick cuts adding to the workhorse performance of this five-piece unit. With a voice four times deeper than Billy Idol, Edlund -- shirtless save for black sleeves on his arms, and resplendent in a long black skirt -- has serious command over the head-banging crowd on "I Am in Love with Myself," which could be the Ramones taken down a few notches on the verge of death metal. The Church of Tiamat pulls out all the stops, superbly packaged with the fancy artwork given a brownish tint on the slick cover. There are 15 titles in the full concert plus bonus tracks including promo videos and bootleg-style material. The 26-minute interview gives a "History of Tiamet" with 14 isolated chapters that allow the viewer to pick and choose segments. Singer Edlund goes back to the band's roots in 1987, chatting with bassist Anders Iwers and a female hostess asking the questions off camera. There's also an art gallery, photo gallery, desktop images, websites, plenty of additional material, and a slick four-page booklet to go with it. A very accessible band for the "genre," this package is well constructed, chock-full of extras, and full of fine performances that can easily bring in new converts. Really an extraordinary find. ~ Joe Viglione, Rovi
