From myth to legend Rowland Howard appeared on the early Melbourne punk scene like a phantom out of Kafkaesque Prague or Bram Stoker's Dracula. A beautifully gaunt and gothic aristocrat, the unique distinctive fury of his guitar style shot him directly into the imagination of a generation. He was impeccable, the austerity of his artistry embodied in his finely wrought form, his obscure tastes and his intelligently wry wit. He radiated a searing personal integrity that never seemed to tarnish. Despite the trials and tribulations of his career, in an age of makeover and reinvention, Rowland Howard never 'sold out'. With recent and moving interviews, archival interviews and other fascinating and original footage, AUTOLUMINESCENT traces the life of Rowland S Howard. Capturing moments with the man himself and intimate missives from those who knew him behind closed doors; words and images etch light into what has always been the mysterious dark.
Leave your thoughts about Autoluminescent: Rowland S. Howard.
| Herald Sun (Australia)Leigh PaatschAn amazing documentary about the late Australian musician Rowland S. Howard. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Cara NashThe best and richest parts of this documentary are the various interviews with Howard himself, which unmistakably reveal a musician whose artistic integrity remained untarnished, and whose passion for music burned white hot to the very end. |
| At the Movies (Australia)David StrattonI did find this really fascinating and rather sad too. |
| At the Movies (Australia)Margaret PomeranzFor anyone interested in Rowland's career and life, or in the music scene of those times, this is absolutely a must-see film. |
| MovieTime, ABC Radio NationalJason Di RossoIf you know nothing about any of this, you'll come out of Autoluminescent with an appreciation and a sense of wonder. |
| TrespassBeth WilsonAlthough this film will obviously interest Howard's fans, even those who are unaware of his legacy will find Autoluminescent a fascinating dip into the life of a musical genius. |
| The Age (Australia)Jim SchembriFans will love it; non-fans will get a strong taste of the hedonistic alt.universe these people inhabited. |
| User ReviewGhost PLooks amazing. How can you not be in awe of this man.The trailer captures the darkness and enigma which was Roland Howard |
