Cory (Bat Leather)

SPB: What is your favorite music-related film or documentary?

Cory: It’s a tie between The Color of Noise and Some Kind of Monster.

TCON is possibly the greatest snapshot of the ‘90s noise rock scene. Great interviews and amazing footage.

SKOM….Love ‘em or hate ‘em, but watching the unraveling of a band operating at the highest level is really fun to watch. Everyone involved (with the exception of Kirk) is completely insufferable. You don’t have to be a Metallica fan to enjoy this.
