Anvil: The Story of Anvil

anvil-coverIt’s been out for a month now on DVD, but watching the trailer I couldn’t help it…

The plot of this documentary is pretty simple: in the 80′s, from Metallica to Slayer, metal has sold millions of records, many bands pulled it off. Here is the story of one who failed: Anvil. For those of you who are into speed-metal, their song “Bedroom Game” would be the very 1st speed-metal song ever made! Formed in 78, this Canadian heavy metal band from Toronto has put out 17 albums total, shared the stage with Scorpions and Bon Jovi, got asked to participate to a Motörhead record, and played the guitar with a vibrator!

Way enough for British journalist Sacha Gervasi to direct his debut documentary “The Story Of Anvil”. Classic.

50Last September, 50 Cent (aka Curtis Jackson) released a book called “the 50th Law” where he (obviously) joins forces with Robert Greene, bestselling author of “The 48 Laws of Power” (which Kanye West and Young Buck have rapped about), to write a bible for success in life and work based on a single principle: fear nothing. We’ve already heard him talkin’ ’bout that matter in his album “Get Rich or Die Tryin”. Lire la suite
