On this episode of The Sounds of Film, host Tom Needham welcomes punk rock legend Harley Flanagan, founder of the iconic hardcore band Cro-Mags.
As a pivotal figure in the New York City Hardcore scene, Harley shares his remarkable story of music, mayhem, and personal redemption.
Harley is the subject of the new documentary Wired for Chaos, which traces his turbulent journey from the gritty streets of 1970s New York to his evolution as a musician, martial artist, and survivor. His life embodies the raw energy and resilience that define punk and hardcore culture.
Director Rex Miller’s powerful film frames Harley’s transformation through trauma, addiction, and rage—toward healing and purpose. Harley’s unfiltered conversation on The Sounds of Film brings this intense personal story vividly to life.
