THE DOOMED & STONED SHOW

-Season 5, Episode 16-

This episode is another in our Doomed Cinema series and features a selection of music inspired by an obscure documentary called 'Madness & Medication' (1977), which explores the then emerging treatments of electroconvulsive therapy and psychosurgery. There were worries about the rampant and unchecked experimentation happening on the mentally ill and these potent fears, along with the stigma of mental illness itself, was the subject of a well-known film from the same time period: 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest' (1975). To match the mood, Billy Goate has cobbled together dark and twisted selections by Cough, High on Fire, Pallbearer, Saint Vitus, Thou, Usnea, and more.
