Watch: New Garage Explosion documentary

The garage rock scene that was born in the the early 60’s and has been fortunate to be kept alive by various bands throughout every generation. Throughout the 90’s the scene spawned and influenced the likes of the White Stripes who gained much commercial success and of course a plethora of other acts who whose 7′ records only sold a handful. Most of that scene is covered well in Eric Davidson’s We Never Learn book, documenting the bands that toured shit venues for the love of rock and roll and punk.

If you want more of this we recommend watching the VBS channel’s video documentary on the current US garage rock scene in the naughties. New Garage Explosion covers Magic Kids, Jay Reatard in the last interview he filmed before his death in January of this year, The Dirtbombs wrecking a bowling alley, Black Lips, Davila 666, Pierced Arrows, and the Dirtbombs discuss the appeal of using a four-track, live performances from rippers like the Clone Defects, Vivian Girls, and Thee Oh Sees and many more over the one hour long film.
