Born to Be Wild: The Story of Steppenwolf (2024)
Directed by Oliver Schwehm
Overview
Steppenwolf is one of the most legendary and at the same time most enigmatic bands in the history of rock music. On the border between mainstream and psychedelic underground, their song “Born to Be Wild” became the anthem of an entire generation. The new, hard sound of Steppenwolf was a stab in the heart of the “Summer of Love” and put an end to the hippie era. It is no coincidence that they were the very first band to use the word “heavy metal” in their lyrics.
