The long delayed project once known as the Hellcat Movie has finally resurfaced. Now retitled Give `Em The Boot: A film by Tim Armstrong, the DVD release showcasing the Hellcat label imprint will hit stores on August 7th.
The DVD will include 82 minutes of rare concert footage featuring bands such as Rancid, Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, Dropkick Murphys, the Slackers, Roger Miret and the Disasters and Tiger Army among others. In fact this is being touted as the first time that live Rancid footage has ever been released through official channels. Also included are live footage of Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros performing at the Brixton Academy (shot by frequent Clash collaborator Don Letts) and a backstage performance by Iggy Pop of "No Fun" with Rancid as his backing band.
HELLCAT RECORDS TO RELEASE
GIVE ‘EM THE BOOT DVD

(Epitaph, Los Angeles, CA) "Hellcat over the world!" exclaims Joe Strummer on a New York rooftop with Tim Armstrong as they both kick-off one of the most highly anticipated releases for Hellcat Records in recent memory. The GIVE 'EM THE BOOT DVD (a film by Tim Armstrong).
Featuring eighty-two minutes of extremely rare, never-before-seen international concert performance footage of bands such as Rancid, Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, Dropkick Murphys, The Slackers, Roger Miret and the Disasters and Tiger Army - to name just a few, the GIVE 'EM THE BOOT DVD is a gritty look into the underworld of Hellcat Records through the eyes of founder Tim Armstrong and a hoard of his Hellcat family members! Some of the performances included featured from around the world include from the Rancid/NOFX tour, Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards tour of the U.S. and highlights from the first and second Hellcat Records Punks VS. Psychos Tour.
Artistically rendered in the "classic" Hellcat style, the GIVE 'EM THE BOOT DVD visuals are grainy, high-contrast and street-influenced. The visual style, however, does not reflect the audio portion of the DVD! The soundtrack is crisp, clear and extracted from media of the highest quality!
The GIVE 'EM THE BOOT DVD features some extra footage, including a moving performance by Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros performing at The Brixton Academy, during the Global A Go-Go Tour shot with the help of Clash DJ, Clash Video and Filmmaker extraordinaire Don Letts and his crew, "b-roll" footage of Tim performing Rancid's "Rats In The Hallway" acoustically over a montage of Rancid footage and a terrific energetic backstage performance with Iggy Pop singing his classic "No Fun" with Rancid as his backing band. There are some extra added video perks featuring surprise cameos and duets from the likes of AFI's Davey Havok and a stellar piece about the making of the Joe Strummer And The Mesacleros tribute video for "Redemption Song."
The GIVE 'EM THE BOOT DVD is the first time that live Rancid footage will be made available for public consumption.
