SUPER DUPER ALICE COOPER (2014)

This little doco is quite unique in the way it focus' in on the childhood of Vincent Furnier the child who would grow up to take on the personality of Alice Cooper. There are some nice (and creepy) little insights into his child hood and how the personality of Alice came about (I won't spoil it here) and more importantly how Vincents' personality got taken over by self destructive entity that was Alice Cooper, and even more importantly how Vincent was finally able to peacefully co-exist with the personality he created.

There is of course the usual commentary on how the band came about, as well as the obilgatory tales of rock and roll excess, but the story telling in this DVD is almost magic, in both a personal way and in the way it has been edited together combining old footage and photos. The photo's and video have been combined to make it visually appealing for a generation used to much more complex CGI and big explosions, which I guess takes inspiration from Alices' love of art as well as music. Combined these factors create a captivating viewing experience quite unlike any rock doco I've ever seen before.

I am of course a fan of Alice Cooper but I'd like to think this doco would translate well beyond the fans of the band and would be interesting to anyone with an interest in the 60's or rock and roll in general and how it mutated in to heavy metal.

ROB ZOMBIE

Rob Zombie has been a busy busy little boy of late not only has he produced a new video clip The Hideous Exhibitions Of A Dedicated Gore Whore (very rockin too I might add...) from his new album, The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser he's also about to release a new movie "31". I've found the trailer for it and posted it below it definatley looks like something to keep an eye out for! 

I still have no idea how he finds enough time to do all this stuff, the guy must never stop!

CATTLE DECAPITATION Video clips!

HEre's a couple of fiendishly horrendous video clips from the masters of tech-deathmetal Cattle decapitation.... these are probably some of the most brutal video clips I've ever seen! NOT safe for work (or anywhere else for that matter)
