Heavy Metal Documentary “A Headbanger”s Journey” To Hit Theaters Next Month
… The documentary follows Sam Dunn, a professional anthropologist, long-time heavy metal fan and practitioner through his own band, as he searches for the source of the mythology surrounding this music maligned and cursed by some, but adored by millions worldwide who cling to it like the cross itself. Over the course of his worldwide trek, he examines metal”s obsession with some of life”s most provocative subjects - sex, religion, violence and death …. it is a fast-paced blast through the genre”s origins, through doom and thrash, through the saccharine hair metal phase, through the notorious black metal blight of the late “90s, right up until the metalcore revolution shaking the music industry”s foundations today. Metal is louder, faster, more intrusive and more insidiously invasive today than its ever been, and “Metal: A Headbanger”s Journey” tells us why, for once, from the point of view of a true metalhead, an insider who lives it, breathes it, and nails the complex tale dead-on. Casual fan or ardent student of metal”s million permutations, this documentary will inform relentlessly. ……
