Going to see a movie tomorrow!
http://www.blackmetalmovie.com At the Grand Illusion Theatre in Seattle, WA! (Yes, a road trip to see a movie!)Been waiting 2 years for this to get released into theatres!Quote, originally posted by Until the Light Takes Us »Until the Light Takes Us tells the story of black metal. Part musical scene and part Cultural uprising, black metal rose to world-wide noteriety in the mid '90s when a rash of suicides, murders, and church burnings accompanied the explosive artistic growth and output of a music scene that would forever redefine what heavy melat is and what it stands for to other musicians, artists and music fans worldwide. Until the Light Takes Us goes behind the highly sensationalized media reports of "Satanist running amok in Europe" to examine the complex and largely misunderstood principals and beliefs that lead to this rebellion against both christianity and modern culture.To capture this on film, directors Aaron Aites and Audrey Ewell moved to Norway and lived with the musicians for several years, building relationships that allowed them to create a surprisingly intimate portrait of this violent, but ultimatly misunderstood, movement. The result is a poignant, moving story that's as much about the idea that reality is composed of whatever the most people believe, regardless of what's actually true, as it is about a music scene that blazed a path of murder and arson across the northern sky. I'll post the roadtrip pics Sunday night...
