Penelope Spheeris' cult film Suburbia sought to capture the teenage angst, alienation and soul-searching of the Los Angeles punk scene, the long-sought soundtrack a big part of its appeal. The live side gives us TSOL at their melodic best, with 'Wash Away' and 'Darker My Love' reminding of the broken hearts and damaged minds beneath the mosh pits, contrasted by the Vandals' raucous 'Legend Of Pat Brown,' while D.I.'s 'Richard Hung Himself' is a one-away ode of self-destruction; the other side has Alex Gibson's evocative film score, the edgy instrumentals capturing the on-screen estrangement. True grit and required listening!
