Church of Noise · Film Screening 'Lo Sound Desert'

A documentary about the DIY music scene in the low desert of California, started out of boredom by revolting punk rock kids.

‘Lo Sound Desert’ is a documentary about the DIY music scene in the low desert of California. What was started out of boredom by revolting punk rock kids, hidden from narrow-minded authorities of sub-urban desert communities in the early 80s, gave birth to bands like Kyuss and Queens Of The Stone Age. The film provides an intimate insight into the attitude of the Coachella Valley’s music scene – from jamming all night in the middle of a surreal desert landscape to headlining European stages – desert rock continued its underground spread and became an international treasure. ‘Lo Sound Desert’ is narrated by Josh Homme, Mario Lalli, Brant Bjork, Alfredo Hernandez, Scott Reeder, Sean Wheeler and many more from bands such as Kyuss, Queens Of The Stone Age, Yawning Man, Fatso Jetson, Dali’s Llama, Mondo Generator.
