Pretty interesting documentary charting the ups and downs of the heavy metal supergroup as they recorded 'St Anger'.
The music is appalling - how they couldn't hear just how terrible the album was is beyond me - but the inter-personal conflicts and the trivial nature of their bickering makes for interesting viewing, especially if you are interested in their music at all.
Lars (drums) and Kirk (lead guitar) come out of it with a bit of integrity, but James (rhythm guitar, vocals) just seems like a whingeing prick who wants everything done his way else he will sulk.
Much door slamming hilarity ensues.
A good watch, but probably only once.
