Review of Hype!

Hype! (1996)
10/10
Great film documenting the hype and history surrounding the "seattle sound"
14 February 1999
This film documents what was is referred to as the "Grunge", or "Seattle scene". It goes into depth exploring the tools the media, and corporations used to exploit and market this scene.

It goes back to the roots of grunge siting such bands as Skin Yard, Green River, and Mudhoney. One great thing about this film is the soundtrack. It's the best soundtrack since "Singles". It features The Gits, Mudhoney, Green River, The Fastbacks, etc.

Watch this film. Watch live performances, interviews with SoundGarden, Pearl Jam, etc.
