    ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
    Majorthebys Charming and brutal
    Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
    Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
    natevanberkom I wish more bands would do this this show has really opened my eyes to more genres of music like for example i now love trouble funk and zac brown and fugazi but before this show i wouldnt even touch that kind of music this show isnt for every one but it is essential for everyone like me and maybe you
    Doug Burr This series is great. I discovered it on Netflix thinking it was a film. It was a nice surprise to find it was actually a full series. I am a fan of the Foo Fighters, but, you don't need to be to enjoy the series. They visit some of the most famous cities in the USA and explore their musical histories. There are interviews with too many people to list here and every main genre is covered. The Foo Fighters record a song in each city, inspired by the history of that city and then perform it at the end of each episode. If you love music I highly recommend this.
    whuntva This program is a showcase of more than just American music. This entire miniseries is a celebration of American culture and very distinct style to their music. The album itself isn't half bad either, with every song fitting the city well. Dave explores all the outlets to show the evolution and unity of out singular culture, giving us a loving tribute from a man in the business. The series has a little something for everyone, with every style represented in every city. The editing is beautiful, the cities are chosen well (though I personally would have included Atlanta, Detroit, and maybe San Francisco as well), and the songs are great. It's just a brilliant salute to our nation all around.
    Ester Shimada If you watched Dave Grohl's Sound City you already know how this is gonna go: You will be taken to a time where auto tune didn't exist, where the musician had to be great because he was great, not because he had a good producer that know's his way with a computer. He interviews music legends, and a lot of the episode revolves around Buddy Guy and Muddy Waters... You see how much they influenced Chicago's music community... You also get to know how Dave's love for Punk Rock started, and we thank his cousin Tracey Bradford for that, we wouldn't have Foo Fighters, and Nirvana as we know it if it wasn't for her. We also get to see how the interviews influenced the lyrics of the songs, we get little pieces here and there, and in the end, it all makes sense!I can't wait to see what it comes next, what will happen in New York, California, Texas, Washington and so on.
