 Description
[Machine Translation] [King Records Rock Movie Classics Vol. 2] From Damned to Journey! Long-awaited reissue of music documentaries at an affordable price! 15 carefully selected films that are a must-see for all rock lovers! The Punks talk about their punk rock impulses, BLACK FLAG introduces their church, DARBY CRUSH asks for beer, and FEAR's Lee Ving punches a customer and yells, "Record company people must die. This is a shocking record of the moment when American punk exploded. The Decline" is the pinnacle of rock documentary filmmaking, and continues to influence the world. The Decline" is a stunning documentary that captures the moment in Los Angeles when the punk rock wave that had already begun in London and New York arrived in California at the end of the 1970s and became the ignition point for the American hardcore/punk movement that has since exploded into the underground world across the U.S. The film is directed by Penelope Spheeris. Director Penelope Spheeris was approached to make a pornographic film, but rejected the offer, instead capturing the bizarre scene where something was about to explode. BLACK FLAG, the giant of American hardcore, before it turned into a monster; Darby Crash of GERMS, a symbol of ruin and decadence, just before he tried to commit suicide (December 7, 1980). Young people give the middle finger to the mainstream, hate the police, dress and style as they please, are not afraid to be different, are aware of being in the minority, vent their uncontrollable loneliness, stress and aggression in their live shows, and despise rock stars as trivial. This film captures the chaos of LA's underground world, along with the violence, depravity, and anger of LA punk bands such as X, GERMS, BLACK FLAG, CIRCLE JERKS, ALICE BAG BAND, CATHOLIC DISCIPLINE, FEAR, and many others, in a live performance. Shot on 16mm and costing $120,000, the premiere screening at the 1,200-seat Hollywood Boulevard Theatre on March 13, 1981, drew an over-capacity crowd of 3,500, prompting the Los Angeles Police Department to dispatch 300 riot police to the scene. The crowd was so large that the Los Angeles Police Department dispatched 300 riot police to the scene. Unable to handle the crowd, an additional screening was quickly scheduled at 2:00 AM to avoid a riot, and both screenings were sold out. Police Chief Darryl Gates sent a petition to the director not to show the film, and no theaters were allowed to show the film after that, and it was never distributed at all.
