You will most definitely love it. I was floored by just how good the Seattle scene really was and shocked that so much of it went under the radar even after Nirvana broke.
There is one band in there called Girl Trouble that is just incredible. Think a grungy Ramones sound with the Big Bopper (1950s vocalist) singing. In-friggin-credible sounding!!!
The movie is really heartbreaking too...it was made by a documentary crew that headed for Seattle about 1992 just as Nirvana was getting big and they basically stayed in Seattle for 4 whole years interviewing and piecing together the whole scene. They were right there when the memorial for Cobain happened and all.
I feel sorry for kids today as I think the current music doesn't stand a chance to rock circa 1991-1995. All those bands were one thing that you could feel in their music: honest.
May have been a little dark and depressing, but they didn't sugarcoat anything. Methinks that's why most people didn't get into it.
