Massive ‘Decline Of Western Civilization’ 4DVD/Blu-ray boxset finally to be released – order yours now
Penelope Spheeris’ “The Decline Of Western Civilization” was perceived as shocking and outrageous at the time of its original release in 1981 and its two follow-up films were no less extraordinary and revealing. The 3 films were also featuring some of the most influential and innovative musicians and groups of that time: Germs, Black Flag, X, Fear, Circle Jerks, Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne.
Now for the first time, all 3 films are available in one deluxe DVD/Blu-ray box set. All 3 films have been restored in high definition and include commentary by Dave Grohl while Tawn Mastrey of KNAC Interviews Penelope Spheeris. Furthermore you get never-before-seen original footage, performances and interviews.
You can order the DVD version right here and the Blu-ray version right here. Below is an old video preview.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
