Jayden Brown

>DUDE, WHAT IF THE BEATLES PLAYED ON MTV UNPLUGGED LMAO!?
Samuel Nguyen
Noah Morales
Heaven Adores You doesn't count? I haven't seen it but it gained some traction when it came out a couple years ago.
Oliver Gutierrez
It is surprising Lou Reed hasn't had anything yet with him being dead now
Thomas Jones
Hunter Brooks
Probably because he was a jealous piece of shit most of the time.
Anthony Evans
I mean Nico had that documentary recently but yeah
Aiden Sanchez
unironically too soon. Give it a few years
Jaxson Thomas
unironically
Jaxon Walker
You're not wrong. There's a number of 60s/70s rock bands that don't really have a decent movie of either
Thomas Smith
You can't make a fully fledged documentary about Elliott because his death has two narratives and while one is already pretty controversial the other will have his family immediately cease all production.
John Baker
That's why you save "the end" for the end.
Adam Gonzalez
he was a better songwriter than any of them.
Christian Lopez
Either the band or just the album. Not even a VH1 "classic albums." You'd think something that started the whole "post-punk" thing would get some recognition.
Lucas Taylor
Are we only talking films? Nick Drake for sure.
Daniel Anderson
didn't he die a virgin? fuuuuck he's my idol
Zachary Richardson
There's Control, 24 Hour Party People and numerous documentaries you can find online which chronicle the making of the album, alongside the rest of their career. Also, Unknown Pleasure didn't start post-punk
Logan Rodriguez
It's pretty much ground zero, my dude
Angel Butler
Control is not documentary. It's still a good film tho
Matthew Davis
Good thing OP said documentaries or biopics.
Ryder Nguyen
It being the recommended starting point for someone getting into post-punk is not the same as it starting post-punk. There are several albums - some of which are on this chart - which predate Unknown Pleasures and are better candidates for the title of 'starting' post-punk (The Idiot, Marquee Moon, Low and Heroes, Talking Heads '77, Wire's first two albums, Ultravox's first two albums e.t.c.)
Nathaniel Brooks
Im sorry, i didn't read carefuly because im drunk. You are right.
Jayden Collins
fucking drake
Ethan Howard
It's decent. I've seen it twice now because it's comfy. Just mostly friends talking about sort of vague memories. Nothing too deep into his life or recording the albums (the biggest disappointment for me)
they sort of left it open as a suicide/homicide at the end before the credits.
Ayden Baker
