Fun show by these swarthy, sea-bound punk sailors. Good tunes, great camera work, plenty of personality, true showmanship. Woulda been a blast to be there.
Clips of live shows, some typical band-on-the-road footage, and some interviews with band members, but not enough of any of these to form the basis of a story.

Just simple grooves and riffs attacked like hunks of meat waved in front of feral animals. And Danko Jones is pretty upfront about his interest in fucking.

The three women of Bottom shaped a recognizable riff-rock sound. You’rNext is a barren, nearly tuneless landscape uneasily pulsing with long bouts of feedback.
