Movie: KILL YOUR IDOLS DVD

A comprehensive survey of some of New York City's post-punk bands, this documentary is equal parts art and music.The No Wave bands of the early '70s make up the first segment of the film. Gritty black-and-white footage of live performances in SoHo clubs feature Suicide (Martin Rev), Teenage Jesus and The Jerks (Lydia Lunch), the Theoretical Girls (Glenn Branca), and DNA (Arto Lindsay). Skipping to the '80s, Sonic Youth (Thurston Moore, Lee Renaldo) and the Swans (Michael Gira) emerge on the scene, and early live B&W footage is shown. The final chapter in this fascinating rock-doc takes viewers to 2002, where a smattering of youthful bands mimic the aforementioned.
