Double Dagger documentary teased

Double Dagger

The mini teaser trailer for the documentary “If We Shout Loud Enough” about Baltimore post-punk prophets, Double Dagger, is amazing news, but definitely still a painful reminder that these guys aren’t together anymore. Hell, the Facebook page is even titled “Double Dagger is DEAD,” a stab in the heart if you ask me, but I guess it’s better than radio silence.

The beautifully shot clip is the band playing a bit of their 2009 song “Helicopter Lullaby” from their album More and the link on the documentary's Facebook is described as such: “47 seconds exhibiting Double Dagger's Loud to LOUder to LOUDEST technique. More to come…”. It might be one of the most accurate descriptions of Double Dagger’s affinity and ability to execute dynamics I've ever read. The documentary is directed by one Gabriel DeLoach and will also explore the Baltimore DIY scene from whence the world received the powerful sonic entity that is Double Dagger. Pretty cool stuff. My money’s on the film being emotional and fascinating but damn, that pain is still a bit raw. Keep an eye out for updates at the documentary's Facebook page.
