Turbonegro

The ResErection

BY Cam LindsayPublished Jun 1, 2005

Documenting their astonishing return to rock after a four-year hiatus forced by front-man Hank von Helvete's heroin addiction, The ResErection is the story behind the notorious Turbonegro — the world's greatest death punk band. A candid, warts and all film, the normally colourful characters are stripped down to their real personas for some dead serious drama. The details of Hank's breakdown are both shocking and a little depressing, as each band member tells of the struggles to suspend a band verging on the brink of stardom, with things lightening up during their rise back to form. Rounding out the film is some definitive live footage of the band at the Quart Festival where they transform back into the rock monsters we know and love. (Bitzcore/MVD)
