The Colossus Of Destiny
A Melvins Tale
How comes no one has ever made a film about The Melvins?
'The Colossus Of Destiny' is a tale about a band who have journeyed through time, dodging hype and mediocrity, and still managed to survive even stronger than ever. It's a film about a band who have defied all the rules, for over 32 years and counting, and still managed to succeed and do it their own way.
The journey of band members King Buzzo and Dale Crover leads us from the backwards-waters of the Chehalis River in Washington State, down through the Golden Gate of Northern California, and finally settling into the Los Angeles River Basin of Southern California. With the rest of the world thrown in along the way. You will witness first hand the beliefs and attitudes, values and obscenities, slows and fasts, triumphs and toils, loves and hates, wits and giggles of a hugely talented and influential band. And you will also come away with a lesson in how to survive in the wicked world of the music biz without taking yourself too damn seriously.
Hear what the countless number of peers, collaborators, understudies, admirers, even haters, have to say about their encounters with The Melvins over the past three decades and more in exclusive interviews. And get to feast your eyes on a huge collection of never before seen Live Footage, Photos, Art, Animation and Extracurricular Activities of The Melvins.
The filmmakers are asking you for help with the funding process to finish this project they both individually started and self-funded over the last 5 years or so, and collectively worked on together the past 13 months. Help to make this happen and back this Kickstarter project here
