Lives of the artists [full length documentary feature]

‘Art should be aggressive, it should be intelligent, it should be interesting and it should cause a stir in the emotions, you know? And if it doesn’t, then what’s the point?’ A quote by Frank Carter, the lead singer of London post-punk band Gallows, and opening quote for Lives of The Artists, a feature-length documentary brought to us by Relentless, exploring the personalities of contemporary artists as they search for fulfillment.

Relentless, adjective meaning:
  1. Unyielding in severity or strictness; unrelenting: relentless persecution
  2. Steady and persistent; unremitting: the relentless beat of the drums.

Relentless, an unfamiliar word for many I presume. A great word, a word which carries raw energy. A word also connected to a brand which I had never before heard of: Relentless. Yet another energy drink [owned by Coca Cola] it seems.

I added the trailer above of what I must admit is a ‘branded film’ like I have never seen before. Nicely captured images and edited with fitting finesse and music. The full length film [embeded below] was released in October. You can satisfy all your extra information needs overhere.

What follows is a journey through snow filled landscapes, the roaring waves under the Tahitian sun and a walk through the sweaty moshpit of a Gallows gig. All in super slow-mo with a theatrical soundtrack in the background. Out.
