Wacky moment of the week: the Decline of Western Civilisation
Posted by Matt under Music , Wacky moment of the weekThis week’s wacky moment is from a classic 1988 movie, The Decline of Western Civiliation part II: The Metal Years. Classic because it’s the most amazing expose of hair metal and all its tragedies - or tragics! And Chris Holmes of W.A.S.P. is the keynote speaker. if you’ve ever Googled ‘drunken fuckwit’, no doubt this guy would come straight up. Watch as he lives up the rock star life, with his mum (and presumably only friend) in tow after god knows how many bottles of Smirnoff. God metal was cool. I wish they would put this movie out on DVD in region 4.
I used to love this movie as a 15 year old git. Watch this clip and you’ll probably understand why.
