The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years
It's more than music...it's a way of life.
Synopsis
The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years (1988) is a documentary you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Penelope Spheeris. The second film in her three-part series about Los Angeles rock subcultures turns its camera on glam metal at its flashiest — Sunset Strip clubs, hair spray, spandex, and enough confidence to fill an arena.
Access was the film's greatest achievement. Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, Ozzy Osbourne, Lemmy Kilmister, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of Kiss, Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Bret Michaels and C.C. DeVille of Poison — all on camera, most of them startlingly candid. Spheeris had a talent for getting subjects to say exactly what they'd later regret. Stream The Metal Years (1988) on iFILM.
