[QUOTE="xmikex:1268596"]I've watched the first 14 minutes or so just out of curiosity as a "filmmaker." I really don't get the pop music/metal juxtaposition. I mean the whole point of playing metal is to not play pop music correct? Of course the two are going to have different draws. I don't see anything wrong with assuming that the film's audience would understand "death metal" is less popular than pop music. There's no need to explain it like this film's exposition does. Second, I don't really get this assumption that if they were playing pop music their tours would be more successful. Would they? I think about it. Pop music gets its exposure through radio play a lot more mainstream channels. There aren't really DIY pop shows. If anything metal and hardcore provides a totally unique experience for unknowns to have an opportunity to play live shows without label support or commercial backing. The price you pay, of course, is that 90% of them are terrible. The storytelling is all over the place and super heavy on voiceovers. VO's are fine for making your production teacher happy, but IRL you need to show your story instead of telling it. My respect to anyone with the guts to make an hour long documentary even if it's on their own band, and the guts to do a nationwide tour. ITS 3-days kick my ass, so I can't knock anybody for touring hard. [/QUOTE]
