About this item
Ten years in the making, winner of the German TV Oscar 2008 (Adolf-Grimme-Awards), now finally on DVD.
MONKS: THE TRANSATLANTIC FEEDBACK by internationally acclaimed play loud! film directors Dietmar Post (Germany/USA) and Lucía Palacios (Spain) tells the extraordinary story of the first avant-garde pop band in history.
The Monks were 5 American GI's in cold war Germany who billed themselves as the anti-Beatles; they were heavy on feedback, nihilism and electrical banjo. They had strange haircuts, dressed in black, mocked the military and rocked harder than any of their mid-sixties counterparts while managing to basically invent krautrock, heavy metal, punk, industrial and techno music. 'You can hear their influence across decades', states Radiohead's Colin Greenwood. How much their music survived the passage of time can be heard on the soundtrack/tribute double CD SILVER MONK TIME, featuring Jon Spencer, Fehlfarben, Goldenen Zitronen, International Noise Conspiracy, Alexander Hacke, Mouse on Mars, the Fall, Faust, Jason Forrest, F.S.K., Gudrun Gut, Alec Empire, Psychic TV3, Alan Vega, Chicks on Speed, and many others.
'A loving and penetrating documentary film.' (The Hollywood Reporter)
