Here's a clip from Kurt Cobain: About A Son, which draws from audiotapes collected by writer Michael Azerrad and is scored by Steve Fisk and Death Cab For Cutie's Ben Gibbard. We've listened to Cobain's description of his—and his peers'—vacillation between nihilism and sincerity five or six times now, and every time we replay it, we're that much closer to flipping off this godforsaken decade, for real.

I think we need more films about this hugely important era in music history!
how about: "What Black Sabbath would have sounded like if they hadn't learned how to write songs or play their instruments"
some of the worst popular music has been perpetrated by people who are experts at their instruments. i will begin with Rush and Dream Theater and leave the rest for you to fill in. Raw technique is insanely overrated.
