About 2 weeks ago I got to watch a movie called Anvil! The Story of Anvil. I knew that it was about the band Anvil of course, but what I didnt know is how great a movie it was going to bed.
First of all I have never owned an Anvil cd nor have I even heard one song by them up until I saw this movie. I dont know why that is either. It could possibly be due to the fact that I really havent heard too many people talk about them so I figured they wouldnt be a band I would be into. How wrong I was to think that! They are a great band. Yes some of the lyrics are a little odd at times but the music is great. Drummer Robb Reiner is great and to still be playing this kind of music in their fifties just amazes me. I see Lars from Metallica saying he doesnt know if they will be able to do what they do in their fifties. If Anvil can do it Metallica should be just fine. In some instances I would say that Anvil just might be heavier and faster than Metallica.

If you get the chance, go out and see this movie you wont regret it. Whether you listen to Metal music or not this is definetly a must see! Also if you werent an Anvil fan before you will be just like me.
