Viewing Notes

I really wish this would’ve been longer. I loved all the stuff they showed, and the interviews, but after watching the same guy’s doc series on the evolution of metal, this doesn’t hold a candle. Now I realize this came first, but I would like to add these two things together and then add more. I’m just being greedy though.
