SmokeOut [DVD]

Amazon.com Despite their name in the title, Cypress Hill was actually one of six groups featured at this all-day festival--and they didn't even headline. That said, this pro-pot event is their baby and this disc captures 2002's edition. The West Coast-based bands at the fifth annual "Smoke Out" range from punk (Circle Jerks--still going strong after two decades) to hip-hop (Bone Thugs N Harmony) to rap-metal (Kottonmouth Kings). Although billed as a co-headliner with Cypress Hill, Snoop Dogg closes the show with eight numbers, including "Murder Was the Case," following up on the Hill's mere three (the shortest set next to Bone Thugs N Harmony). Overall, this is a rousing document of a big day filled with monster beats, shredding guitars, and ample tributes to the leafy green. Your mother is sure to disapprove, but just try keeping your little brother from putting this DVD on an endless loop. --Kathleen C.
