“Love Is Forever, Blood Is Forever,” the documentary about Misery Signals‘ final tour, is now available for streaming, as reported by theprp. The film was directed by Morgan Tedd and was shot on the metal band’s last 2024 tour. The documentary, which is now available for free viewing on YouTube, will also be shown at The Williams Center in Rutherford, New Jersey. Tedd will be there and participate in a Q&A with Kyle Johnson, the band’s former bassist. A multi-camera film shoot of the band’s October 19, 2024, swan song performance at Union Hall in Edmonton, Alberta, will be shown during that screening.
I’ve loved Misery Signals for as long as I can remember. Of Malice and the Magnum Heart was such a formative album for me and countless other musicians. To be asked to create two music videos for the band, as well as direct their Live in Isolation performance during the Covid years, was an honour. Those projects were made across oceans, but for this documentary, I wanted closeness.
I wanted to capture the bond between the band, their fans, and the music itself; to celebrate the joy and intensity of their live performances through a reflective lens, as they toured for the final time before laying Misery Signals to rest. This film is my love letter to the band, and a shared celebration from one fan, to every fan.
Blood is Forever, Love is Forever, captures the final three performances of Misery Signals, the American / Canadian metalcore pioneers whose music carved anthems of loss, resilience, and unbreakable brotherhood. Filmed between London, England and Edmonton, Canada the documentary follows the band as they close the book on two decades of shared history, catharsis, and sacrifice. Through visceral live footage and unguarded moments off-stage, the film becomes more than a farewell tour. It is a testament to friendship forged in grief, the unrelenting bond between artist and audience, and the way music can turn suffering into communion.
