BOOM chronicles one of rock ‘n’ roll’s wildest and most influential bands: The Sonics. For the first time ever, all five original members explore how a relatively unknown band from the Pacific Northwest became a worldwide phenomenon 50 years later, shaping music for decades to come. Featuring interviews with homegrown heroes and breakthrough artists alike, including Pearl Jam, The Sex Pistols, Heart, Mudhoney, and many, many more.

Filmmaker Jordan Albertsen scheduled to be in attendance for a live Q&A at the Nov 23rd showing!

“Brilliantly displays why The Sonics are so important. It’s clear that this film will further cement the legacy of one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time.” Glen Casebeer, Northwest Music Scene

“The spirit of BOOM is as righteous and undeniable as Gerry Roslie’s howl.” Dave Segal, The Stranger
