‘Nasum: Blasting Shit to Bits – The Final Show’ – the concert documentary focusing on NASUM’s final show, which took place in Stockholm on October 6th 2012, was originally released December 18th 2020 as a DVD through Selfmadegod Records and digitally on Vimeo. On October 6th 2024, 12 years to the date, the concert documentary including all the DVD extras will be released for free on YouTube.
“October 6th has been an important date in my life since 2012. It’s almost like a birthday or something like that, that requires a celebration every year. Needless to say, the entire farewell tour of 2012 – and the final show in particular, is something that’s crystal clear in my mind still today. One of those big moments in your life. ‘Blasting Shit to Bits’ has had many forms during these 12 years. First as a cinematically released movie in 2017, then as a DVD in 2020 followed by a live album released on all physical formats in 2022. Now with the wide public release on YouTube everyone can share the music and the feelings surrounding the final show of NASUM”, says drummer and founding member Anders Jakobson.
During its tenure, NASUM rose to become one of the most influential acts of the extreme underground. When lead singer Mieszko Talarczyk disappeared and died in the devastating and tragic tsunami of 2004, NASUM instantly ceased to exist. When the band’s would-be 20th anniversary approached in 2012, the band decided to put the band to final rest, “The way it was supposed to end: exploding in a ferocious, blasting frenzy, not withering away at the mercy of tragedy.”
The world tour took NASUM to more than sixty cities on almost every continent over the course of four months. Michael Panduro’s film ‘Nasum: Blasting Shit to Bits – The Final Show’ documents the final performance in its intense, impassioned entirety, intertwined with interviews, behind the scenes footage and the band member’s unhinged account of the band’s rise and demise.

About the film director Michael Panduro states, “When NASUM asked me to document their final day as a band, we quickly agreed that we didn’t want to add any polish, but rather depict the day as it was. It was an intense night with a band wearing their emotions for all to see, and we didn’t want to shy away from that. So, that was my way of attacking the project, both in terms of filming and editing. To put equal focus on the things that went well, the things that went wrong, the things that were said and the things that weren’t said (as highlighted through the honest interviews throughout the film). We wanted to create an engaging viewer experience, that was as close to being in that sweaty pit of a thousand dedicated patrons as we could. So, we incorporated footage shot by the audience, and created a sound mix that resembled the live experience more than a polished live recording. October 6th 2012 was a night to remember. There were tears, there was joy, there was emotional release, and there was exhaustion. To see all these emotions at a grindcore show is a rare thing. In documenting the event, I hope and believe we did the night and the legacy of NASUM justice.”
