From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferocious Bloodaxe began in 2006 when university students Adam Turner and Stephen Hendry developed a comedy music duo that had no music. Fellow class mate, Lee Barrett, was brought in as a backing singer. From then on he was referred to as L Bargie. Lee's younger brother, Kyle, was brought in to provide music, which would never be used, and was nicknamed K Bargie. In 2009 a short film, as a mock-mockumentary, called Ferocious Bloodaxe: The Movie, was created. After a few successful screenings it became a minor cult hit. The sequel, Ferocious Bloodaxe: Part II - 2 Ferocious 2 Bloodaxe, has been in development for 3 years. Filming began in 2011, reuniting the original cast. Filming was stalled after various issues. Filming resumed in March 2012.


Ferocious Bloodaxe: The Movie depicted the rise and fall of Scotland's quietest band Ferocious Bloodaxe. Showing the beginnings of the band with interviews with Adam and Scuba (Hendry) detailing their process of creating the band. L Bargie, revealed to be a poet, explains he was brought in to help mediate between Adam and Scuba as they disagree over lyrics, particularly their song Airbus - No Fuss. K Barige was recruited to give them a starting point musically, even though they refuse to use any. Dom (Dominic Kidd), their manager is an alcoholic who has yet to book them a single gig. Their only fan, Emmaz (Emma McDonald) hopes to keep them together as they are her lifeline. After many arguments, particularly when Adam turns to nihilism as a form of religion, the band split up. The film is narrated by a mysterious figure who calls himself 'Truman Capote' (Paul Costello) who also opens and closes the film.


Ferocious Bloodaxe: Part II - 2 Ferocious 2 Bloodaxe finds the band back together after years of being apart. Scuba's new enthusiasm for 'The Sound' is what sparks a reunion. Some resentment still floats, particularly between Scuba and K Bargie as Scuba refuses to let K put some beats down for the music. Adam has developed his religion of nihilism and has chosen Judiasm as a basis. L Bargie seeks to use the reunion to spark love in humanity. Dom is missing and K Bargie's efforts to find his location are useless. After receiving a death threat, K Bargie suggests that they bring back their former roadie, only known as The Sarge (Kenny Boyle), to help motivate their creativity and for protection. After luring The Sarge back out of his own suspension from the imaginary army, they receive another death threat. With the new sound pushing them forward, Scuba has a dream which partly comes true.
