Ahead of the official release of 'Lords of Chaos' in UK cinemas this Friday, Dark Matter webzine is proud to preview an exclusive clip from the much talked-about black metal biopic.
Based on the notorious book by Didrik Søderlind and Michael Moynihan, 'Lords of Chaos' charts the bloody, controversy-courting genesis of Norwegian black metal in vivid and unflinchingly graphic detail. Set against an ultra-violent backdrop of clashing egos, gratuitous vandalism and bloodshed, creator Jonas Åkerlund’s directorial vision follows Mayhem founder Euronymous's relentless quest to revolutionise a jaded metal scene by the most ruthless and uncompromising means imaginable.
Comments Åkerlund:"Based on truth and lies, Lords of Chaos is a coming of age story of a band of brothers with the right intentions, heading in the wrong direction. There’s rock n roll, youth, love, and death—woven through an incredibly dark story."
