This documentary examines the Seattle scene as it became the focus of a merging of punk rock, heavy metal, and innovation. Building from the grass roots, self-promoted and self-recorded until break-out success of bands like Nirvana brought the record industry to the Pacific Northwest, a phenomenon was born.
| nudity | One band has a cartoonish drawing of a topless woman on the bass drum. One record album cover shown is a photograph of naked men, from behind. |
| violence | One interviewee (jokingly) threatens violence. |
| profanity | Some of the milder four letter words appear early in the film, with the f-word a couple of times. As the film goes on, especially when Eddie Vedder is interviewed, the f-word and its "mother" version are used more often. |
| alcohol | Several interviewed band members drink beer during the interviews. A few others smoke cigarettes. Many of the performances are in bars, with beer served, consumed, and thrown. |
