Movie Reviews of N.Y.H.C. (Documentary)

Movie Review: Poorly made, incomplete documentary of lame NYHC bands
Summary: 1 Stars

None of the bands in this documentary can hold a candle to any of the bands from the 80s NYHC scene. The music is so awful that it made me sad that the younger generation would be led to believe that this garbage is representative of the golden years of hardcore from NYC.

I could excuse the omission of the 80s bands if the film was well made and included an interesting cast of characters that had more to say than, "I'm an outcast of society; hear me roar!" Unfortunately, the result is an art student quality film of live clips from (mostly) CBGBs and interviews with band members and fans who are not at all compelling or articulate.

Watching this film made me wish that CBGBs had closed its doors in 1992. Don't waste your time or money.

Summary of N.Y.H.C. (Documentary)

Originally released as a now-legendary underground VHS tape in 1999, N.Y.H.C. will come to DVD for the first-time as a deluxe 2-Disc Set.

This incarnation features interviews with Jimmy Gestapo (Murphy's Law), John Joseph (Cro-Mags), Lou Koller (Sick of It All), Lord Ezec (Crown of Thornz, Danny Diablo), Roger Miret (Agnostic Front), Rick ta Life (25 ta Life), Toby Morse (H2O), Vic DiCara & Rasaraja das (108), Freddy Madball (Madball), Tim Williams & Mike Kennedy (VOD, Bloodsimple), District 9, No Redeeming Social Value, and more.

The brand-new "Disc 2" includes "Where Are They Now?" interviews shot ten years after the original documentary, flashbacks of key venues, and previously unreleased live performances of iconic songs by VOD, 108, Madball, 25 ta Life, Crown of Thornz, and more.

N.Y.H.C. is the first feature-length documentary to explore the New York Harcore music scene. Drawings its roots from punk rock, hardcore evolved into a dedicated, self-contained movement, unconcerned with success in the mainstream. The documentary follows seven bands in the summer of 1995, ranging from Bronx inner-city youth to Long Island suburbanites to Hare Krishna devotees. N.Y.H.C. is a surprisingly in-depth and non-exploitive look into a vital and often neglected music community.
