Skum Rocks! (2013)
5/10
Skum for Sure

Warning: Spoilers
The name "Skum" is fitting for a band with no musical talent who got by purely by throwing great parties more than great musical showcases, and who lied to investors to continue their "career." This documentary provided a unique view of these master manipulators who managed to keep up a façade of an actual band for years.

The documentary itself was interesting, to see the band come clean and admit that they weren't talented, but still defend themselves with the fact that being in a band is about more than music. While I agree with that to an extent, I think musical talent means more than the rest. I can see where their cult following would come from, people certainly enjoyed the atmosphere at their "shows," but the ethics of these men certainly left a lot to be desired.
