VH1’s The Rock Life Approaches Dead Rock Horse, Beats it with Vigor

The allure of sex, drugs and rock n’ roll continue to outlive most of its human origins. This is the only explanation we can pinpoint for VH1’s brand-new show The Rock Life, which dissects the sun-drenched world of Malibu-based rock band Whitestarr.

We can only guess that this is going to be a less masterful version of Cameron Crowe’s Almost Famous, which covered the slow ascension of the somewhat-more-believable band Stillwater, through the eyes of a teenage journalist-to-be.

Check out the show intro here. This masterful oeuvre was put together by Version2.

The song is the band’s own. Note influences of the Stones and the Beatles, and – by gad, could it be? – possibly LFO.
