Heavy Metal Britannia

The latest entry in the rock-doc canon teases out the gnarled roots and riffs that fed into a genre that's as ridiculed as it is revered. All the major players are represented in this wide-stanced, hair-tossing profile: Maiden, Sabbath, Purple, Priest . . . but it's the early and minor influences that contribute the best stories, especially Arthur Brown hiding under a carpet from Hells Angels. The Kinks' You Really Got Me, author William Burroughs, Boris Karloff and the blues all have a part to play in the story, and if the performance footage lacks the variety of previous Britannias, there's still a touching use of Zeppelin's Ten Years Gone (outside the remit, admittedly) in the summing up, in which axe men of yore defend metal's place in rock. No place here for "one of England's loudest bands", Spinal Tap, but Nigel "Bad News" Planer adds some playful vocals.
