THE BEAST

Australian metal band Parkway Drive will release a documentary film entitled ‘Viva The Underdogs’. The film will be shown in Australian cinemas on January 22. More information on other territories to follow.

“We have always taken pride in doing things our way,” says vocalist Winston McCall. “For over fifteen years we have stayed true to ourselves in a world of extremes. We are not the story of shooting star super stardom, we are not the overnight breakout success, we will never be viral and we sure as hell won’t break the internet. But we have a vision, and we have lived for it, worked for it, bled for it, grown for it and broken for it. We have sacrificed everything and compromised nothing. This is an honest insight into what it takes to survive as the underdogs. Thank you for being part of the story”

‘Viva The Underdogs’ features over a decade of behind the scenes personal footage, coupled with unprecedented access to the bands most explosive live tours and world’s biggest music festivals. The film gives an incredibly honest and candid look at Parkway Drive’s journey; the good-times, battles, triumphs, and sacrifices.
