Taking the City By Storm dives deep into Milwaukee's underground music scene from '75 to '85, and it's pretty fascinating. Doug LaValliere really captures that raw energy of the protopunk and punk vibes. The pacing feels right – it's not rushed, letting the stories breathe a bit. You get a sense of the camaraderie and tension among bands and fans alike. The interviews are revealing; some faces you might recognize if you’ve dug into the history of punk. The archival footage is a treat, showing how those gritty venues looked back then. It's distinct in how it captures the local flavor, not just a broader narrative. A genuine slice of music history for those into the scene.
