Urgh! A Music War


Warner Brothers unceremoniously released the film on DVD this week, to the delight of new wave and punk lovers everywhere (believe it or not, there are several websites dedicated to this film and pleading for a DVD release).

Urgh! is basically a series of live performances filmed in the UK and US around 1980. It features the Police, XTC, Devo, Echo & the Bunnymen, the Go-Go's, Joan Jett, Gary Numan and a lot more. Fans say it captures the essence of the new wave music scene happening at the time.

Alas, WB do not ship to Canada!
