n o t e s
  This documentary directed by Doug Pray which features "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (recorded live 1991.04.17 at OK Hotel, in Seattle) and "Negative Creep" (a sound clip from Bleach).  Most, if not all, of the songs listed are just clips.  The film was released in theaters in 1996.

A quote from the cover reads:

  • "Tracing the steps of grunge from its subversive inception in neighborhood basements to its global rise to the multi-million dollar pop culture phenomenon, Hype! incorporates hilarious interviews with rare concert footage of bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Mudhoney and the The Melvins.  Filmed over three years in 24 track digital sound, Hype! casts a discriminating look on how the fuse was lit on the nothwest rock explosion."
