Peter Dunning é um individualista ao extremo, um solitário, alcoólatra, ex-artista que cortou relações com esposas e filhos. Sua empresa, mesmo nas noites de inverno rigoroso, são as ovelhas, vacas e porcos que ele tem em sua fazenda em Vermont. Peter é também um dos mais complicados e simpáticos temas de documentários. Um produto da contracultura dos anos 1960 cujo idealismo poético, desde então, azedou. Por toda a sua sinceridade, ele desliza em hábitos autodestrutivos, ficando bêbado e amaldiçoando os esplendores de uma paisagem pastoral que ele passou décadas nutrindo.

In the early '90s, a passionate and unrestrained movement of singers emerged from the underground that would test the extreme limits of the human voice. Heeding the call of the warriors of rock and metal for over 15 years, Melissa Cross developed a vocal training method that has since been embraced by these artists who value raw power and passion above everything in their performance. Her groundbreaking vocal technique can enhance range and increase endurance without sacrificing intensity and individuality. Combining solid voice technique and a groundbreaking vocal workout with tour-bus humor and backstage commentary, this DVD is as entertaining as it is informative. The Zen of Screaming is the first of it's kind a a must-have tool for the modern vocalist of all genres. —Loudmouth, Inc.
