Why 7? Because this is filler. Plus, haven’t lists rounded to the nearest 5 or 10 been overdone? In the meantime, if you want a top 10 list, post a comment with 3 more movies to round this list out and you will get my eternal gratitude and a cookie!
Dig!
Wonderful movie about the mutual admiration of The Dandy Warhols and The Brian Jonestown Massacre and how it all goes wrong, for one band. Best line in a movie EVER, “You fucking broke my sitar, mother fucker!”
The Flaming Lips: Fearless Freaks
Made me really appreciate what they’e about by learning more about their process. It’s all about the process.
Metallica: Some Kind Of Monster
Band loses bass player, band finds bass player, band loses bass player, band loses singer, singer comes back, band finds bass player, and Bob Rock is adorable. I should know. I watch this movie 40 times a year.
Les Paul: Chasing Sound
Just amazing. See why every recording artist, regardless of genre, owes this man just about everything.
Shut Up & Sing
Or Why Country Music Fans Hate America No Matter How Patriotic They Sound. In all seriousness this is a must see. The Dixie Chicks kick ass.
History of Rock ‘N’ Roll
Want to learn how every major genre of rock music started and be entertained? No? Oh. Well watch this anyway.
LoudQUIETloud: A Film About The Pixies
Find out that indie cred doesn’t make you cool in real life. Oh, and Frank Black’s man boobs!
