GENE SIMMONS - "Family Jewels Season 2"
Demon rocker Gene Simmons and his family hide nothing from the cameras in Season Two of this hit reality series. Whether he's showing a young friend the ropes in Vegas or planning to buy himself an island, the legendary KISS frontman still wants to rock and roll all nite. But Gene is forced to balance his hedonistic lifestyle with new domestic concerns: Shannon Tweed, the former Playmate of the Year to whom he s been happily UNmarried for 23 years, wants a new baby; their son Nick is planning to go away to college; and their little girl Sophie is growing up fast, attracting the attention of fashion photographers.
From family vacations gone awry to problems with a rent-a-bachelor auction, the Simmons face one crisis after another in their uniquely raw and honest syle. Gene and Shannon even allow cameras into the operating room to follow every step of their simultaneous plastic surgeries and their heartbreaking, hilarious recoveries at home.
LED ZEPPELIN - "The Song Remains The Same" (2 Disc Special Edition)
The 2007 edition of The Song Remains The Same is much more than a simple upgrading of the 1999 DVD release to Dolby 5.1. Kevin Shirley re-mixed the movie audio from scratch - drawing on the original 16-track on-site recordings of 1973, so that whether you watch with Dolby 5.1 or two-channel stereo headphones, the sonic experience is greatly enhanced.
"We have revisited [emphasis added] The Song Remains The Same," says Jimmy Page, "and can now offer the complete set as played at Madison Square Garden. This differs substantially from the original soundtrack released in 1976, and highlights the technical prowess of Kevin Shirley, who worked with us on How The West Was Won [and 2003's Led Zeppelin live performance DVD]. When it comes to The Song Remains The Same, the expansion of the DVD and soundtrack are as good as it gets on the Led Zeppelin wish list."\
Add in another 35 minutes of goodies, and you have a winner of a DVD.

KISS "Kissology Vol.2 - 1978-1991 "
The Knights in Satan's Service have always had an approach to their fans that on the one hand could be seen as ridiculously crass and on the other as truly generous. And this release, with its three expertly mastered and crammed DVDs--issued with three separate bonus discs--could easily support either view. The second installment in KISS's Kissology DVD series will sort out the casual fans from the true members of the KISS Army. The material included here, after all, begins in 1978, when the band released four separate solo albums at once and their massive popularity began to wane. It continues on through the controversial makeup-free period and ends in '91, as KISS struggled to cope with the ascendancy of grunge over the hair metal style they'd experienced a second boom with. The concert films are pretty great, but the full-length Tom Snyder Tomorrow show appearance is flat-out brilliant, as is their live performance on the short-lived sketch comedy show Fridays. And the highlight of the set has to be the "European theatrical version" of their made-for-TV film KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park. All those who've suffered through poorly degenerated video bootlegs will glory at this wonderfully restored piece of rock and roll camp!
Buy it now while we still have the limited edition 4-disc version with a bonus dvd of a rare Kiss concert in full!
AVENGED SEVENFOLD "All Excess"
The debut major-label album from Avenged Sevenfold (aka A7X) shattered preconceptions of punk and metal as 2005's City Of Evil sold more than 800,000 copies and won the band Best New Artist at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards. Now, prior to the release later this year of the band's next explosive album, the DVD All Excess brings fans up-to-date with a visual and aural history of the group. This is only the beginning for A7X. This program takes a look at the history and style of Avenged Sevenfold, chronicling the band's journey from its meager beginnings, to its success as a revolutionary force in modern metal. The program also explores the creative process that's helped make the group and its popular sound into what it is.
QUEENSRYCHE "Mindcrime At The Moore"
Boasting epic staging to match their expansive sound, this 2006 show from Queensryche shows the band still knows how to rock. In this concert from Seattle's Moore Theater, the quintet plays every song from the concept albums OPERATION: MINDCRIME and its sequel, OPERATION: MINDCRIME II. In addition to this 32-song set, Queensryche returns for an encore with the classics "Jet City Woman" and "Walk In The Shadows." MINDCRIME AT THE MOORE also features a documentary on the band's tour, a short film on their efforts for VH1 Save the Music Foundation, and a unique performance of "The Chase" with a special appearance from Dr. X.
RATT "Videos From The Cellar- The Atlantic Years"
Few 1980s-era hair metal bands had more thunder or influence than Stephen Pearcy and company's rodent rockers, and in this collection of music videos culled from Ratt's stint with Atlantic Records fans can pull on the spandex pants once again and relive their rock and roll glory days.
JEFF MARTIN- "Live At The Enmore Theatre"
As songwriter, singer, producer and guitarist with the Tea Party, Jeff Martin brought grandeur, majesty and mystique back to rock music at a time when his peers and contemporaries were either revelling in all things punk rock, dumbing down the music for quick commercial gratifi cation, or generally showing a lack of concern for melody, dynamics, musicianship and the manipulation of light and shade.
“Exile and the Kingdom” the first batch of Martin solo songs bears the same markings of greatness as do the songs he penned and lovingly recorded with his friends Jeff Burrows and Stuart Chatwood, as the Tea Party. This DVD captures a special night at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre in September 2006 when Jeff Martin was joined onstage by very special guests the Toronto Tabla Ensemble.
HEAVEN & HELL (Sabbath w/ Dio) "Live! From Radio City Music Hall"
Live from Radio City Music Hall captures the band bashing its way through some of Dio era's best, including "Mob Rules", "Die Young", "Neon Nights", "Children Of The Sea" and an epic 15-minute-plus version of "Heaven & Hell".The quartet also performed a pair of new songs- "The Devil Cried" and "Shadow Of The Wind". The entire show is shot in breathtaking HD and the dvd also includes a tour documentary and other bonus footage.
Legends of a musical genre that has long established itself beyond all trends and fashion! Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinnie Appice are Heaven & Hell. Referred to by some fans as Black Sabbath- after all, this impressive line-up performed under that name for the first time some 15 years ago, the band has embarked on a massive world tour (in fact, they only just left our shores!).
This monumental piece of music history is available in 3 formats:
DVD (The concert!)
2CD (The audio of the concert!)
LIMITED EDITION DVD/2CD DIGIPAK (All of the above in one special package!)
