Tillfälligt slut

Teenage Head was a full-on, balls-to-the-wall, three-chord band that obliterated categories and labels with their sonic assault, and everywhere they played they converted the merely curious to the insanely devoted. And they almost became world famous. Almost. Told by film critic and pop-culture aficionado Geoff Pevere, this is their story.

Praise for Geoff Pevere: "After almost 30 years of writing about the movies, Geoff Pevere's anti-establishment views are just as strong as ever, but now he wears them as com-fort-ably as an old leather jacket. He has always been more inter-ested in broad-ening people's interests than in trying to narrow them. In an age with almost unlim-ited access to film, just one stream in an onrushing tide of media, this is daring. For the boy who once had to wait months to see Citizen Kane, how-ever, it's simply a ges-ture of generosity." - Toronto Screen Shots Praise for Teenage Head: Venom and his sidekick, songwriter/guitarist Gord Lewis, deserved to be much bigger stars than they were. They likely would've been if not for a streak of bad luck that turned triumph into turmoil at every stage of Teenage Head's three decade run." - NOW Magazine
