Punk: Attitude
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpjgifDvlP4[/youtube]
Just a fantastic documentary about punk music

Step Across the Border
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_vm1dUpXTM[/youtube]
Kind of a documentary about Fred Frith... but kind of not. Call it a avant-guarde film about avant-guarde music I guess :idk:
At any rate it is a very interesting film
Clockwork Towns: Like grandma's homemade chicken soup, lovingly made with just a hint of sulphuric acid.
