New Film ‘Lords of Chaos” Highlights Lives and Deaths of Norway Black Metal Scene, and murders surrounding the band Mayhem
Swedish director Jonas Åkerlund‘s film focuses on the notorious lives and deaths of the black-metal scene in Norway, the church-burnings and murders surrounding the band Mayhem in the early Nineties. Åkerlund paints a vision of late Mayhem leader Euronymous (played by Rory Culkin) not as a black-hearted malcontent out to create chaos, but instead a conflicted emotional young adult. Our friends at Revolver talked to Åkerlund about his surprisingly colorful look at black-metal history.
