Trenches of Rock

I was able to see a viewing of this move on March 30, 2019 in Visalia, California. Whether you are a fan of Bloodgood or not, this movie is a must see. While other bands like Motley Crue were busy creating the events of The Dirt, Bloodgood was paving a path beyond anything metal or rock has ever experienced. There is only one Bloodgood, and this story is amazing! I can't wait for the official release. It's also for all ages. I was wrapped remembering this band from the past, while my 13 year old son was entranced by the band for the first time. So much so, that on the ride home he carefully copied the Bloodgood band name logo onto his treasured Van shoes. You don't get the sharpie to Vans treatment unless you are something special, and this band is still something special!

This is an absolutely fantastic film about Bloodgood, one of the earlier hard rock/metal bands who blazed a trail for the bands after them. They combined a hard rock/metal sound, along with a faith based message, which was a combination that was almost unheard of in a band at the time. Highly recommended if you are a music loving person, but even if you are not, you will take something away from it.

It was so engaging, inspirational and real! The history of a story untold and yet told in a way that you will want to watch it again and again! True stories, of hardcore men that just wouldn't quit and who stood up against a society to reach people in a way no one else had ever done! Loved It!!!!

I've been a Bloodgood fan for several years. I have been privileged to see then several times in concert. This documentary is a must see for any true Bloodgood fan. It is an amazing journey. True metal missionaries right up to this present day. They don't water anything or candy coat the true. I walk away with added respect and much love for these guys.

First rate insightful documentary focusing on the American band Bloodgood. Formed in the mid 80's during a time when the Heavy Metal / Rock genres were gaining popularity in the mainstream. It follows the bands progress with interviews and archive footage, charting their successful career and centring on their desire to match faith based lyrics to this particular style of music, virtually unheard of at the time. Highlighting the obstacles thrown in their path, from bible bashing preachers who condemned outright this type of music, lambasting all who dared question their opinion, the prejudice from even other musicians who were equally vociferous in their own condemnation and then some......To the practical realities of trying to keep a band together, record label deals, promotion and support (or lack thereof), life on the road and the consummate dedication and effort put in to it all by these true "Metal Missionaries". Regardless of whether or not you are a Christian, this documentary is a must see. Informative and a real eye opener, it captures your attention from beginning to end.
