From the inception of the band, self-documentation was always practiced.
As bassist Jeff Musser revealed in an interview in KGB magazine,
they knew that if the band suceeded in gaining significan quick
recognition, "there would be a precipitous fall" in interest. The
idea for a documentary was born out of this realization. This was
a band that foresaw its own demise, and was in a sense created for
its own documentation as a comment on the cultural system that allowed
it to suceed. While such premeditation might seem calculated, it
succeeded at making a memorable impression at a time when getting
recognition was extremely competitive. These are a selection of photographs
that are both candid and posed.
