Good band documentaries

[Necro Red]

I watched two hours of the Petty one. May finish it this week now. It is excellent! I find prime is decent for music documentaries

Sone good stuff there alright, I watched the 6 part Grateful Dead one over the weekend. It was alright, I'm not a fan of the band but it held my interest. I never realised Garcia was a smackhead, it didn't seem in keeping with his public persona.

Just came across the Cathedral documentaries from the Forest Of Equilibrium and The Ethereal Mirror reissues, hadn't seen them. They're alright, done on a fiver's budget as you'd expect from Earache (it's Dorrian, Jennings, Griff and Lehan chatting around a pub table), worth a look for the history of the band and the odd anecdote.

I just watched the Forest of Equilibrium one.  Cool documentary.

Just watched the Swans documentary (Where Does A Body End?), very good watch. Gira's a lot more affable than I'd expected but just as focussed and intense when it comes to the music. I need to go back and get the albums I never got around to picking up now, such a decent body of work, something for every mood.

Is it up online?

[Carnage]

Not for streaming, that I could find anyway. Got it from YTS.

Cool, is it like that Carcass one they did for the reissued albums? May check it out?

Yeah, they came with the reissues on a DVD.

Watched those there and found them very enjoyable.  Would love to be in a band with lads as down to earth as that. They know what they're about like

Norwegian series that's been comming out the last few weeks on Enslaved, haven't watched them all yet but each episode so far has been an enjoyable watch:

It's a great watch.

Swans - Where Does A Body End

Jaysis...what a one of a kind band. The amount of people interviewed in it saying they had no words to describe their early live shows -- coupled with the great live archive footage of those years -- says it all really.

Heavier than any metal band in my opinion, they're tapping into something different entirely.

It's brilliant, I got the extended cut in the post yesterday. Second disc of bonus material too, looking forward to spinning that.
