Not sure if it was mentioned here other than here: http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/sho...=rock+religion

Seen it last night and it features "Shaking Hell" and "Brother James", with snippets, just snippets of SY c. 1982-84 (probably no more than one minute) though music plays for longer, on top of narrator voice-over etc. Thurston and Kim are listed in the credits under "Important Ideas". It has a feel of an unfinished documentary, and looks like it was edited on vhs tape. Has some footage of Patti Smith looks like from Central Park, some Black Flag footage, looks like Henry Rollins but I could be wrong (hardcore show pit footage too), plus clips from "Gimme Shelter", the Doors in Miami audio, Jerry Lee Lewis talking to Sam Phillips audio tape, and other stuff like that. Plus the movie traces rock back to the Shakers religious sect, and connects that to "Shaking Hell". pretty bad vid quality like I said, VHS tape quality, but still interesting.

Forgot- yes it does feature Branca as well but I forget the track that plays. And it's playing again on Sunday in case someone wants to see it.
