The Angels: Kickin' Down The Door

Overview

Emerging from Adelaide in the 1970s, The Angels, led by the electrifying Doc Neeson and the Brewster brothers, forged a distinct sound that became integral to the city's music identity. Iconic tracks like “Am I Ever Goin’ to See Your Face Again” and “Take a Long Line” propelled them to the forefront of the local rock scene by 1978. Despite narrowly missing global fame, their impact on Australian music was profound, shifting it from polished pop to raw, theatrical rock. Maddie Parry's intimate documentary captures this tumultuous journey, featuring rare footage and photographs that reveal the band's internal struggles amidst their explosive performances.
