'King Rocker' - "one of the best music documentaries of all time"
The Quietus is delighted by the new documentary about Robert Lloyd and cult Birmingham punk band The Nightingales: "You’d expect a film by the director of Brass Eye and 'Toast of London', and the comedian behind some of the most brilliant stand-up sets ever to come from these shores, to be funny and smart – but the experience of 'King Rocker' explodes those expectations. It’s not hyperbole to say this is one of the best music documentaries of all time. Hilarious and brilliantly knowing about the form of music documentaries, and caustic about the music industry and fame, at its moving heart it’s a wonderful homage to and a portrait of a true outsider artist, and an inspiring comeback story that in the already boiling maelstrom of 2021 feels profoundly necessary".
