FROM kids' stuff to folk rock's elder statesmen, with some hip-hop and noisy punk thrown into the mix, music-oriented DVD picks for this gift-giving season span many styles and generations.
"40 Bands/80 Minutes" The average viewer won't recognize any of the bands in this frenetic new film, and many may find the music less than listenable. Yet the spirit of this über-independent effort can't be denied. It documents one night at Hollywood's Il Corral club when 50 artists took the stage to the click of a stopwatch and gave their all until they got the proverbial gong. Director Sean Carnage captures the whole scene, including a man who makes a sandwich with his feet. Includes the bonus film with those stray extras, "10 Bands/20 Minutes." Tuesday, Sounds Are Active, $10.98.
