Alright then, I hope you enjoy it. ;) But the funny thing is, over here in Finland I get sort of the same response when I say I like Nightwish as people in the Netherlands get when they say they like Hazes. I guess they standards in Finland are a bit higher. :D

I'm not a Hazes fan. I think Hazes' music is great when you're out in a bar. Don't play it at home, don't own any CD's. Point is the documentary is great because it's brilliantly done. It gives you a great insight in his life.
It's the same with 'Anvil! The story of Anvil'. It's a documentary about Anvil!, a band that enjoyed a short period of succes in the 80's. They headlined festivals with bands that became extremely succesfull but Anvil never reached that success. The documentary portraits the 2 founding members in 2007. They've tried to make Anvil a success ever since the 80's and failed every time, 30 years later they still havent given up.
I think everybody should watch the Anvil documentary, because it is a great documentary about handling failure which 'accidentally' is portrayed by a metal band. It's painfull to watch these 50+ years old guys clinging to a dream that will never be, squandering their time and money on it. You'll be staring at your screen wondering why on earth they haven't moved on with their lifes. |
