A 42-minute documentary on Old Man Gloom (Cave In, Converge and ex-Isis) titled “Old Man Gloom: Here Is A Gift For You” was released today below via Noisey. Kenneth Thomas put together the feature. Frontman Aaron Turner (ex-Isis) stated that it chronicles the band up to the making of their new album, “The Ape Of God“, out November 11th. He told the above-mentioned site of it:
“It is actually kind of everything up to that record. Our friend Kenneth Thomas filmed some of our shows because he was a fan of the band and was excited when we were active again. That was the seed for the film. He did some impromptu interviews with us around those shows and felt like he had some good material, so he suggested putting something together.
We gave him a few more ideas of other things that might be good for inclusion and just let him run with it. So, in a way it’s sort of like a history or an encapsulation of the band’s existence up to the point of making The Ape of God. All the footage pre-dates the existence of that record.”
