Description
Official European PAL version.
The Sex Pistols may have only been together for two years in the late ’70s, but they changed the face of popular music. Through their raw, nihilistic singles and violent performances, the band revolutionized the idea of what rock & roll could be. In England, the group was considered dangerous to the very fabric of society and was banned across the country; in America, they didn’t have the same impact, but countless bands in both countries were inspired by the sheer sonic force of their music, while countless others were inspired by their independent, Do-It-Yourself ethics. Even if they didn’t release any singles by themselves, there was an implicit independence in the way they played their music and handled their career. The band gave birth to the massive independent music underground in England and America that would soon include bands that didn’t have a direct musical connection to the Sex Pistols’ initial three-minute blasts of rage, but couldn’t have existed without those singles. One of the members of Sex Pistols one said “Actually were not into music, Were into chaos”. Now with this 60 minute release you can experience the chaos that was Sex Pistols with live material recorded during the Scandinavian “The Summer Of Hate” tour during the second night at Studentkåren Happy House in Stockholm on the 28th of July 1977 as well as live material from Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco on the 14th of January 1978. Between these two shows we find some very rare private filmed material featuring EMI and Anarchy In The U.K. live.
