did the dead kennedys get mentioned once?

I just saw this and I noticed that too. Yeah, they got briefly mentioned and some of the bands mentioned them, but why no interview with Jello or any of the other DK guys? I enjoyed the documentary, but I think some key bands were missing.

There were absolutely some key bands missing. One of the big things I didn't care for about this documentary was that it made it out to look like if a band wasn't part of that very first wave of hardcore then they just didn't matter. That would put bands like Slapshot, Sheer Terror, etc in the trash.

Well, the complete title of the movie was "American Hardcore: 1980-1986" so Slapshot, Sheer Terror etc etc weren't eligable anyways. (Negative FX kills Slapshot anyway)
There were a handful of ok hardcore bands post '86 but, really, the first wave was a trillion times better than anything that came after it.
I just finally saw this the other night. Great fucking movie. I might even buy it and I never buy DVDs. I would kill for the complete concerts of some of that footage to be released. Negative FX, DRI in '83, etc etc. I've never seen footage of some of that stuff before. Amazing.
It was cool that Boston got it's own chapter too.
