Changes gives an intimate portrayal of life on tour with Godsmack throughout the band’s 2003- 2004 “Faceless” Tour. Shot by Daniel E. Catullo III and Andrew MacNaughtan with 14 cameras in High Definition, 16:9 format, Changes lets audiences experience the rigors of being on the road and travelling from city to city to perform music for tens of thousands of die-hard fans. The film features in-depth interviews with all four band members, behind-the-scenes material, and over an hour of live performance footage including the hit songs “Straight Out Of Line,” “Voodoo,” “Awake,” “Moon Baby,” “I Stand Alone,” “Faceless,” “Keep Away,” “Bad Religion,” “Whatever,” “Re-Align,” “Changes” and “Serenity.”
Godsmack has gone from being an unknown Boston band to become one of the most popular and widely acclaimed hard rock acts in the United States, with a fan-base in the millions. Since 1998, the band has sold over 7 million records (including their “Faceless” album, which debuted at #1 in 2003), released 11 Top Ten singles and garnered 3 Grammy nominations. Changes is just a small part of their story; the latest in a string of accomplishments that have earned them the reputation “Hard as nails and cranked to eleven!”
The newly released Changes DVD will be available in stores on Tuesday, September 14th. More information about Changes is available at www.changesthemovie.com and www.godsmack.com.
