I’ve told you many times about Joe Angio’s new documentary, Revenge of the Mekons, an exciting look at one of the most iconic bands in history of rock. The filmmaker just announced that the movie will premiere on November 15 in NYC. Get ticket info here. Learn more about the project on The Facebook.
From Angio:
I’m excited to tell you that Revenge of the Mekons, the documentary I’ve been working on for the past six years, will make its world premiere at the DOC NYC film festival on Friday, November 15.
The film—which Spin magazine touted as one of the “next big rock docs”—chronicles the uncharted course of the Mekons, “the band that took punk ideology most seriously,” as writer Greil Marcus described them, and reveals how, four decades into an unpredictable and still-evolving career, the group continues to make original, genre-defying music.
Please join me, co-producer Jessica Wolfson and editor Jane Rizzo, along with special guests Jon Langford, Sally Timms, Steve Goulding and Rico Bell of the Mekons, at the screening.
Friday, Nov. 15. at 9:45pm
SVA Theatre
333 W. 23rd St, between 8th & 9th Aves

I hope to see you at the premiere!
