Harley Flanagan’s Life Story Streams in “Wired for Chaos” as Cro-Mags Hit the Road
Harley Flanagan‘s incredible life story has been told in a new documentary called Harley Flanagan: Wired for Chaos. The film, which includes interviews with everyone from Flea to Ice-T, is streaming now for a limited time until August 15th. It dives into the Cro-Mags frontman’s turbulent upbringing and his important role in shaping hardcore music.
“Founder of the pioneering band Cro-Mags and a legend of the NYC Hardcore scene, Harley Flanagan is a punk rock icon who has defied the odds and come out the other side,” the film’s description explains. “But while his career has been a no-holds-barred ride, Wired for Chaos isn’t just about the music, it’s about a man forged in fire – a survivor of neglect, sexual abuse, drugs, violence, and PTSD – who’s lived to tell the tale.”
You can watch Harley Flanagan: Wired for Chaos now on Eventive. The screening access includes the complete uncut documentary plus exclusive bonus features.
You don’t have to watch the film to know that Flanagan isn’t sitting still. He’s just announced a new set of North American tour dates that will take the Cro-Mags from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Brooklyn, New York throughout September. Check out the itinerary below.
