The Canadian premiere of "Metalstorm: The Scandinavian Black Metal Wars" will happen on Thursday, July 13, 2006 at Zeke Gallery in Montreal, Quebec. The film was compiled by Cinemuerte's Kier-la Janisse.In 1991, the singer of the seminal Norwegian black metal band MAYHEM was found dead in his apartment of a self-inflicted shotgun wound. A photo of his mutilated body graced the cover of MAYHEM's subsequent album. This was to be the first in a series of violent events associated with the increasingly fearsome black metal scene in Scandinavia, which over the next few years would escalate to include the burning of nearly 100 churches and culminating in the murder of MAYHEM guitarist Euronymous by fellow band member Varg Vikernes (a.k.a. Count Grishnackh). This in-house documentary contextualizes these events to tell the frightening and tragic story of an unholy war that has left a grim legacy for metal fans the world over.
The showing will be preceeded by three black metal videos directed by Pat Tremblay (ROSTRUM's "The Lust of Raping your God" and "I'll be Saved" plus BODYSERPENT's "Ruler"). Short films by Kenneth Thomas ("Stethoscope") and Syl Disjonk ("Zordax 2: La Guerre Du Métal") will also be part of the night's program.
