"This gets 5 stars easy. Excellent sound, camera work, performance, etc. Couldn't be better, and the energy flows strong throughout from both band and audience. Good bonus features. Among the best concert films I've seen."
Live Domination

"After dropping from Roadrunner due to lack of promotion for Supremacy, Hatebreed signed a small deal with Koch Records for this dvd release, a covers album called To The Lions (out in October), and a live cd coming soon that was recorded and produced in Texas by Hellyeah/Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul. Live Dominance is the culmination of nearly 14 years of blood, sweat, and extremely hard touring. 22 songs from the band's catalog are presented, and they have to be because most of the band's songs are short and to the point (some running between around 2 and 3 minutes long, and some as short as just under 2 minutes). Setlist includes some favorites from Satisfaction Is The Death Of Desire (Empty Promises, Before Dishonor, Last Breath, etc.), while it mostly focuses on some of the best material from Perseverance, The Rise of Brutality, and Supremacy. The atmosphere is very violent as is to be expected at a Hatebreed show. Despite it being indoors, it reminds me of when I saw them at Ozzfest last summer. Blood, bruises, circle pits everywhere. Not that I'm complaining. If a pit broke out near where I was standing, I just moved away from it. Extras include additional live footage, interviews, photos, tributes, and all of the band's music videos (their first video for Before Dishonor is noticeably absent). If you're a Hatebreed fan, and you're reading this, don't pass this up."

"This video is strong from an upbeat beginning to a extremely brutal ending. Definitely my favorite live video I've ever watched. I would recommend it to anyone who listens to this band, it captures their essence perfectly."
