Murder in the Front Row: The San Francisco Bay Area Thrash Metal Story
Self
Murder In The Front Row: The San Francisco Bay Area Thrash Metal Story. In the early 1980’s, a small group of dedicated Bay Area headbangers shunned the hard rock of MTV and Hollywood hairspray bands in favor of a more dangerous brand of metal that became known as thrash! From the tape trading network to the clubs to the record stores and fanzines, director Adam Dubin reveals how the scene nurtured the music and the music spawned a movement. Murder In The Front Row is told through powerful first person testimony and stunning animation and photography. The film is a social study of a group of young people defying the odds and building something essential for themselves. Featuring interviews with Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Exodus, Testament, Death Angel, Possessed and many more! Narrated by Brian Posehn.

Paradise Lost: Over the Madness
Self - Testament guitarist
In a career that has spanned 20 years (and counting), Paradise Lost have sold a staggering two million albums worldwide. Their constant reinvention and brazen attitude to musical experimentation has always allowed them to maintain a constant relevance despite the myriad fads and short-lived scenes that have emerged over the last two decades. Indeed few bands that prove so very influential in their infancy maintain the quality of output that Paradise Lost have. They formed the basis of an entirely new genre, gothic metal. Even now, fifteen years later, the influence of Paradise Lost is clearly visible on most Gothic and Heavy Metal bands. Since then the band - named after John Milton's epic 1667 poem - have released a number of musical highlights and genre merging masterpieces.
Больше, чем жизнь: История хэви-метал
Himself
«Тяжелый металл» называют и совестью рок-н-ролла, и его могильщиком. С конца 1960-х и до наших дней это совершенно самостоятельная музыкальная вселенная со своими остывающими и сверхновыми звездами, своей табелью о рангах, своим кодексом чести. «Металлические» короли и их свита не обращают внимания на то, что происходит в других мирах. В однообразии и нормативности «металлической» музыки - залог ее поразительной живучести. Здесь, как в каком-нибудь эстрадном свинге, достаточно было открыть пару-тройку эффектных ходов, чтобы создать целую эстетику. Навязчивый рифф, атакующий припев, инструментальное соло - три заповеди «тяжелого металла», объединенные идеей форсированного звука.
