No War for Heavy Metal (1999)
A rare treat here in the form of the 1999 documentary No War for Heavy Metal; put together by Alan Glass, John Cattle and Tom Moore as part of the Channel 4 show The Other Side. A week long tour ending at one of the legendary Radlands comps – with Channer alongside a van of rippers having it around various UK indoor skateparks and drinking establishments – this is the perfect watch to gain a sense of what it was like skateboarding in the UK before Street League and weed socks. “I just don’t wanna collide with a biker…they’ve got more arms than I have”.
