I hear the trailer is better than the movie. The junkie is the director (who is trying to get in Black Label) and most of it is about him. But I haven't seen it, thats just what I heard.

this looks dumb and pretty contrived.
black label already exists, its a skate company.
go watch the "blackout" video for some real awesome.

meh.
im sure the black label kids are cool, but i dont know about the whole idea of a movie about them and their 'non-mtv' lifestyle. does anyone here know anything more than this trailer about the group?

They're the ones behind Bike Kill. Very eclectic group, though how faithful this 'documentary' is to their general being I couldn't say. I'd be interested to see it, at least, even if it isn't very good. I'm always up for another media artifact of the culture.

this makes me miss minneapolis even more. i recognize a handful of those kids.
and their lifestyle is anything BUT contrived. they're some of the most geniune people you'll ever meet, for better or for worse. i have a lot of respect for some of them.

If you can watch the movie, and somehow shut off your brain for the tony segments, you will end with an excellent visual history of black label and chunk events in nyc, as well as minneapolis, and travels to amsterdam.
dont worry about the movie, just make sure to get down to bike kill or a chunk event. or sooner, the cutthroats party april 1st in richmond.
if you want to see some pictures, check flickr or tod seelie's photos of the event - everydayilive.com/every day i live
and shouldnt this be moved to the alt bike culture thread - or the video thread in this forum

And for people living in Los Angeles.....
Thursday, March 16 - 7:30 PM ALTERNATIVE SCREEN

Sneak Preview! B.I.K.E., 2006, 89 min., USA. An exploration of the Black Label Bicycle Club as well as the wider freak bike subculture. Comprised mainly of artists driven by anti-materialism and a belief that the impending apocalypse will render cars useless and bicycles in power, BLBC battles mainstream culture and rival gangs for its vision of a better tomorrow. Co-directed by Jacob Septimus & Anthony Howard and produced by Frederic King, this new doc is a definitive look at the intersection of subculture, radical politics, group dynamics and personal identity. With music by: The Dears, Broken Social Scene, Lightning Bolt, Japanther, Panthers, Explosions in the Sky, A Silver Mt. Zion, Oneida, Andre Williams, Peter Laughner, Matt and Kim, Rashaan Roland Kirk and The Gladiators.
