Part 1 - Since the late 1970’s a thriving underground scene of extreme music has continued to evolve in Australia. Metal Down Under takes a look at the bands, people and events that have shaped this unique slice of Australian history. More than just the music, we meet the characters that make metal in Australia what it is today. From promoters, radio hosts and magazine editors, to band members and extreme fans, Metal Down Under introduces you to a world you either didn’t want to know existed, or have been a part of all your life. Featuring over 40 exclusive interviews as well as rare archive footage and photographs from Metal for the Brain, Metal for Melbourne, The Big Day Out, SBS, music videos, live concerts and much more.

“Metal Down Under is a vital and historic piece of film-making. A vibrant document of a thriving underbelly of Australian music that both audiences and the industry often choose to ignore.” Brian Giffin – Loud Online

"Epic in its undertaking, Metal Down Under captures the past, present and future of the Australian metal scene and condenses it into three hours of riveting, essential viewing." Rest Assured Zine

"Metal Down Under by Nick Calpakdjian serves as a solid time capsule to the metal world we know and love and equally find ourselves disenfranchised with at times; featuring a rather comprehensive look back at the bands that stood as the forerunners to today’s groups, as well as providing a look into the current scene, and even some speculative murmurs to what may lie in store."
