The Colossus of Destiny: A Melvins Tale
“Why hasn’t anyone ever created a film about The Melvins?” Until now, no one had attempted or even considered it feasible. “The Colossus Of Destiny – A Melvins Tale” is a documentary about a band that has broken all conventions for over 32 years and continues to thrive on their own terms. The story follows band members King Buzzo and Dale Crover from the remote areas of the Chehalis River in Washington State, through the iconic Golden Gate of Northern California, and finally to the Los Angeles River Basin in Southern California, with the rest of the world making appearances along the way. You’ll experience firsthand the band’s beliefs and attitudes, values and irreverence, slow and fast moments, victories and struggles, loves and hates, humor and laughter. This film offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkably talented and influential band, along with a lesson on how to navigate the treacherous music industry without taking oneself too seriously.
