Description:

Truth be told, since the blunted triumphs of their eponymous debut and 1993's Black Sunday, Cypress Hill have been in a steady creative tailspin. Tellingly, on this live disc, recorded at the legendary San Francisco venue, it's the trio's genuinely entertaining performances of early material such as "Real Estate" and "How I Could Just Kill a Man" that stand out. But the percussive accompaniment and fuzzy guitars the group draft to dress up the rest of their material simply make the proceedings repetitive and tiresome and obscure B-Real's distinctive whine and Muggs's production--the group's two greatest assets. Thankfully, there is a return to their most potent material toward the end, but it doesn't save this release from being a cursory footnote in their discography. For completists only. --Del F. Cowie

3Hits from the stage.  Oct 17, 2006
"Live At The Fillmore" confirms my thought that live rap albums just don't really work. Even with the great Cypress Hill this only comes off as ok for fans. I initially had high hopes for this disc because the tracklist is killer. I wish the "Greatest Hits" album had these songs. And while this is still decent, soundwise it just doesn't have the impact that the albums do. Mid-way through the songs all start to sound the same. This is something the fanatic will probably love, but otherwise I'd say stick with the first three albums, and maybe "Skull & Bones".

5don't mess with the Hill, just buy this cd  Feb 19, 2002
This album showcases Cypress Hill's best material as well as their skill at performing live. They deliver off-the-hook versions of killer songs like "Aint goin out like that", "Rock superstar", and of course "Insane in the brain". I like the way the performances keep the hardcore style intact, but put a spin on the way the songs sound compared to the original recordings. My only complain deals with the dvd--they should have included more of the Fillmore show instead of putting all the videos on it. Or simply released 2 dvd's--one of the entire show, and the other with all the Hill's videos. Holla.

4SSSSSMokin!  Dec 28, 2001
Cypress Hill are like the Jimmy Buffetts of rap--they
may not be at the cutting edge of their game, but when playing live you know you're gonna have a great time. Rap bands have a bad reputation as far as live performances, and deservedly so. To this day, only three acts can deliver a 90-minute show that brings the house down--OutKast, KRS-One, and the Hill. Using the guitars accentuates the menace that could otherwise get lost in a concert setting. This has made me almost forget the studio versions of some of the songs. Excellente!
