Never Mind The Sex Pistols: An Alternative History - Released 29th October 2007
To celebrate thirty years since the release of their seminal album Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols, Demon VISION is releasing a brand new DVD documentary chronicling the rise and fall of one of the most important bands to come out of the UK.
Direction is provided by Alan Parker, a leading expert and acclaimed Pistols biographer with titles including Sid’s Way, Expose: Sex Pistols recording guide and Sid Vicious: 21st Century Icon. He is currently available for interviews.
The film charts the rise of the band, from their early days at Malcolm’s shop ‘Sex’ to their first gigs, and subsequent record deals. The significance of the arrival of Sid Vicious is dealt with as well as the untimely demise of the band. Never Mind The Sex Pistols… also includes exclusive footage of Malcolm McLaren revealing for the first time that he never wanted to make the album in the first place!
The electrifying story of The Sex Pistols is told through in-depth interviews with those few who were close to the band during their phenomenal yet short-lived success. - 29th October 2007

Does Punk Mean? Punk
means thinking for yourself. Punk is sincere aggression and
kindness. Punk means being open-minded. Punk is change. Punk
means cuddle. What DID you think punk meant?
"Some
of the best music ever recorded may never be
heard by the people it was meant for."
