Storyline
The music industry is changing, record sales are down, artists are making less money, and mediocrity holds sway. Yet there are more bands than ever before working for years just to receive even the tiniest drop of success. Following the lives and careers of Tub Ring, Bloodshoteye, and 3 Mile Scream, with supporting interviews from major players in the heavy music scene, this documentary sheds light on why some bands never make it and why the ones that break realize only too soon that life on a label is only the beginning of their troubles.

This film is interesting, informative, and filled with great music and truly captures how in any creative industry people are going to struggle and this film is so vividly accurate of showing the struggles these people have to endure. Enjoyed the wide spectrum of experience from the artists and the down to earth tone of the film, and actually having a view into these peoples family lives. Also a huge fan of Tubring, but i think this film can reach more then just the metal genre. All should go see how the creative industries chew up and spit out all who try to make a living doing what they love. Highly recommend this to all music lovers, or other aspiring artists.
