'Working Class Rock Star' DVD: First Four Minutes Of Documentary Posted Online

February 20, 2009

The first four minutes of the music industry documentary "Working Class Rock Star", which was released on DVD in North America on November 11, 2008 via distributor Cinema Epoch, can be viewed below.

Directed by Justin McConnell, the film's synopsis reads as follows: "The music industry is changing, record sales are down, artists are making less money, and mediocrity holds sway. Yet there are more bands than ever before working for years just to receive even the tiniest drop of success. Following the lives and careers of TUB RING, BLOODSHOTEYE, and 3 MILE SCREAM, with supporting interviews from major players in the heavy music scene, this documentary sheds light on why some bands never make it and why the ones that break realize only too soon that life on a label is only the beginning of their troubles."

The film features interviews with LAMB OF GOD, GWAR, UNEARTH, THE HAUNTED, ARCH ENEMY, FINNTROLL, KATAKLYSM, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, BLEEDING THROUGH, HIMSA, BYZANTINE, DOG FASHION DISCO, Frank Marino and many more.
