Australia Heavy Metal Documentary Metal Down Under To Be Released
October 23, 2012, 12 years ago
Animus Industries has announced they are producing the feature length documentary Metal Down Under. The film will trace the origins of metal in Australia and explore this ever-evolving genre of extreme music.
The film is accompanied by an interactive website that will document the production of the film as well as profile and publicise many of the bands and identities involved in heavy metal. Check the site out at this location.
According to a press release: “The history of metal in Australia has never been fully told and this film attempts to rectify that. Rather than a back-stage interview film with a bit of live footage in between, Metal Down Under will tell the story of
Aussie metal through formal interviews, archival, animation, candid observation-style footage and first person narration.”
Released in conjunction with the documentary DVD will be a bonus DVD of music videos, interviews and extended material as well as a compilation CD.
