Rowland S. Howard: Autoluminescent

Here’s an extended trailer for a documentary feature in production on the late, great musician Rowland S. Howard:

Looks like it’s going to be a phenomenal biography. Produced by Ghost Pictures, Autoluminescent features candid conversations about the man’s gutwrenchingly beautiful guitar-playing and his tumultuous life with everyone from Nick Cave to Lydia Lunch to Nick Zinner to Gudrun Gut to Henry Rollins to Mick Harvey to Thurston Moore to Jim Sclavunos… brandishing a banana.

It’s currently slated for a Summer 2011 release. HELL YEAH.

    I saw him back in 88 or 89 in Sopot (Poland) with These Immortal Souls. I just loved that sound of his idiosyncratic howling guitar. Lydia Lunch is right, one of those geniuses who will probably be forgotten. Or maybe not?

    I hope not. I really, sincerely hope not.
