This week, we talk to L.A.-based musician and podcast producer Devon Bryant, maybe the most obsessed fan of their chosen subject we’ve had on the show to date. We discuss the 1998 Robyn Hitchcock performance film Storefront Hitchcock and how director Jonathan Demme honored the weirdness that is a Robyn performance. Along the way, we talk about the journey to loving music you couldn’t stand on first listen, the success and failure rate of stage banter, the daunting nature of massive discographies, and if we are lyrics first people or music first people.So, as Robyn says, ‘yip yip yip’ as we push deep into the mind of Storefront Hitchcock.Theme by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.comArtwork by Jeff T.

This week, we talk to L.A. comedian & filmmaker Max Beasley, who chose Todd Haynes' glam rock-driven narrative film ‘Velvet Goldmine.’ We discuss the ambitious and experimental nature of the film, how hard it is to adapt fictional characters from real-life musical legends, why this film found an audience long after its theatrical run, and how it ended up having one of the biggest impacts on Max’s life and art.So as Bowie once sang ‘Come on, come on, we’ve really got a good thing going’ on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.Max Beasley:www.instagram.com/maxbeasleyy/twitter.com/maxbeasleyyyTheme by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.comArtwork by Jeff T.

This week, we talk to the legendary UK author & musician Paul Hanley (The Fall, House of All & ‘Leave The Capital’). He picked the divisive Clash film ‘Rude Boy’ to discuss at length. Along the way, we discuss lead ‘actor’ Ray Gange’s perfect aloofness and failure as a roadie, the notion of punk rock musicians as actors, The Clash’s repudiation of the film, and whether or not The Fall’s Mark E. Smith gave The Clash a pass.On a side note…the original recording of this conversation was corrupted, so we had to use the backup. We apologize for any crunchiness, but maybe you could think of this episode as our ‘Are You Are Missing Winner’ of the series!So let’s salute the new wave and hope nobody escapes on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.Paul Hanley:https://www.route-online.com/blog/category/authorshttps://houseofall.bandcamp.com/Theme by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.comArtwork by Jeff T.
