UNTIL THE LIGHT TAKES US: A NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL DOCUMENTARY

2008, Aaron Aites and Audrey Ewell, USA, 93 min.
http://www.blackmetalmovie.com

“As richly compelling and artfully shot as rock docs get.”--Aaron Hillis, LA Weekly

This riveting documentary is not a music movie but a clear-sighted investigation into the murky subculture of Norwegian black metal music, whose history, though distorted and sensationalized by the press, is still pretty sensational even in the undistorted version, strewn with the ashes of torched churches and the blood of murder and suicide victims. As the filmmakers note, black metal “blurs the line between music, art, activism and terror...there’s really no other art or music or ideological movement like it.” Focusing on three figures--self-destructive pioneer Dead (of the group Mayhem), convicted murderer Varg Vikernes (of Burzum), and the relatively moderate Gylve Nagell (of Darkthrone)--UNTIL THE LIGHT draws a deeply, disturbingly ambivalent portrait of a contradictory movement that is too complex either to endorse or to dismiss. In English and Norwegian with English subtitles. DigiBeta video. (MR)

BEING EMO IN MEXICO WILL GET YOU BEAT DOWN

Being an Emo in Mexico can have some serious side effects.
Mob Rule runs rampant. Emo's are receiving some serious beatings from clashing tribes of Punks, Goths and regular citizens and the violence is escalating out of control.
Protests break out in violence, Emo kids hunted, Mexican television and press feeding the fires of ignorance. The media compares being Emo to being a rapist, a molester and worse. With the recent Swine flu breakouts in Mexico, I'm sure these same fuck-tards are placing the bulk of blame on 'los emos'.
I can't stand Emo just as much as the next guy, but I sure as hell wouldn't hunt an Emo down for an afternoon of 'fag-bashing', my mom brought me up to be better than that.
