Information:

“Millencolin and the Hi-8 Adventures” was released in 1999 in VHS format by Burning Heart Records. The 74-minute home video was created by guitarist Erik Ohlsson during the course of the band’s international tours. It includes footage of the band on tour, both performing and on their spare time skateboarding, bowling and a bunch of other stuff..

It also includes a history of the band told by the members covering their career from 1992 to 1995, a number of live performances, and the music videos for the singles “Da Strike”, “The Story of My Life”, “Move Your Car”, and “Lozin’ Must”.

It also includes a sometimes pretty awkward FAQ section.

The song “The Tame” is taken from the Melack demo tape and appears as the 20th song played in the video.

A soundtrack album to the film was also released in a limited run of 3,000 copies: 1,000 in Europe, 1,000 in the United States, and 1,000 in Australia.

It was later re-released in DVD format in 2003. The DVD added the music video for “Kemp” as well as a trailer for an upcoming sequel to the film.
