Maori Metal

Roughly 3% of people living in New Zealand can speak its native language. Alien Weaponry, a local metal band, wants to save it from disappearing through their music. The following film contains heavy metal. Viewer discretion is advised.

Welcome to Aotearoa, the land of the long white cloud. In a particularly pastoral section of the North Island lives the De Jong family. The youngest of whom formed the band “Alien Weaponry” back when they were 8 and 10 years old. Their blend of metal, traditional Maori language, history, and a long-standing beef with the system just debuted as number one on the music charts in New Zealand.

Hail the new wave of destruction.
