Saw the Such Hawks, Such Hounds documentary last night. Matt Pike blew my fucking mind in the first minute and a half. It was pretty good after that too. If you haven't heard of it, it's a documentary about "The American Hard Rock UNderground," or essentially the (so-called) stoner, psychadelic, and desert-rock scenes. It has interviews and live footage Pentagram, Kyuss, Melvins, Sleep, Om, Wino, Dead Meadow, Bardo Pond, Pearls and Brass, Earthless, and more. I highly recommended it (Har, har, har.)
