Gama Bomb - Survival of the Fastest

1h 12m Documentary, Music, Irish Film 2024

When their seventh album Sea Savage hit the American Billboard charts, cult Irish thrash band Gama Bomb were trapped by lockdowns, missing a drummer, and unable to tour.

What followed is chaos and comedy across the UK and Europe with the mission to make it to Hellfest — the Glastonbury of Metal.

This award-winning documentary from director Kiran Acharya and producer Sara Gunn-Smith has been celebrated as “a sweet tale of decades-long friendship” and “not what you expect from a metal band”.

Survival Of The Fastest is a sharp, sweet, and absurdly funny riff on classic music documentaries like Anvil! and Spinal Tap, with a heartwarming portrait of male friendship at its core.
