"I think this film and soundtrack will touch the hearts of fans and viewers alike, as we remember his larger-than-life character behind the drum kit, but also his charm and warmth that made him a beloved musical legacy." valuable."

This Was My Life will be the first film to commemorate Menza's legacy and celebrate his life exactly as it was. It is described in the press release as "a persistent exploration into the life of one of the most successful thrash-metal drummers of all time."
