Sex Pistols DVD due out

Remember me saying that no-one ever puts a modern snap of The Sex Pistols with their articles? Well, here’s me addressing the balance… and they do look like sulky pantomime dames! Anyway, that’s not the story. A new Sex Pistols DVD is set for release… but what of?

The new DVD will feature the Sex Pistols’ 30th anniversary gigs at Brixton Academy and is set for release this summer. Filmed over their five sell-out shows last November, “The Sex Pistols -There Will Always Be an England” is the only official concert-length DVD to have ever been officially released by the group.
The 80 minute flick is directed by Julien Temple, famed for his insightful music who made the brilliant ‘The Filth and the Fury’ and the not as brilliant ‘The Great Rock and Roll Swindle’. As bonuses, the DVD will include the Pistols’ alternative guide to London in which Johnny Rotten, Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock is filmed revisiting their old haunts.
The DVD, recorded in HD/5.1 surround sound, is set to appear in June to coincide with the Pistols’ European festival dates, which include headlining this year’s Isle of Wight Festival.
