BOOM: A film about The Sonics tells the untold story of one of rock ‘n’ roll’s wildest and most influential bands, The Sonics.
For the first time ever, all five original members of the band tell the story of how it all went down, beginning to end. The documentary takes a deep dive, exploring how a relatively unknown band from the Pacific Northwest became a worldwide phenomenon 50-years after their heyday, and in doing so, shaped music for decades to come (whether it was apparent at the time or not). Featuring interviews with homegrown heroes, from Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready to Mudhoney’s Mark Arm.
