Lo Sound Desert provides a deep, intimate look into the Low Desert music scene’s history with never-ending jams in the middle of the desert which continues to live on with the same vitality, authenticity and resilience as two decades ago. Lo Sound Desert is narrated by Josh Homme (Kyuss, Eagles of Death Metal, Queens of the Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures), Brant Bjork (Kyuss, Fu Manchu), Mario Lalli (Fatso Jetson, Orquestra del Desierto, Ten East, The Perfect Rat) and many other from bands like Kyuss, Queens Of The Stone Age, Yawning Man, Fatso Jetson, Mondo Generator, Dali’s Llama, Hornss, Slo Burn, Unida and Fu Manchu.

What was started by revolting punk rock kids throwing parties in the middle of the desert - hidden from narrow-minded authorities of suburban America in the early 80s, became a movement
over the years.

  • “If my opinion matters, this film is very authentic” Brant Bjork (Kyuss)
  • “Outstanding! One of the rare rock documentaries that will survive” Mario Lalli (Fatso Jetson)

From endless jams in unconditioned rehearsal garages to wasteland venues to smoked-up European backstage rooms: ‘Desert Rock’, a specific vibe of pure analog rock music, was fostered by the beauty of a surrounding that naturally provides a lot of space. Until nowadays it continued its slow-moving underground spread and became international treasure. In a way Desert Rock  never  reached extreme popularity like simultaneously grown, commercially hyped Grunge Rock in the early 90’s. But it still seems to be around and inspires new generations of rock bands to carry on.

A release party in Berlin will be held on June 24th 2016 at Kino Zukunft, presented by  Rock/Squad,  SOL, DesertFest, RockHard, Visions and Monduo Films. Lo Sound Desert will screen at 8pm, followed by concerts of Powder for Pigeons, Vic Du Monte’s Persona Non Grata, Operators, Jan Schwarzkamp, Dj Eggs Delicious and more to be announced.

On July 1st 2016 and with the help of UK promoters Desertscene and Desertfest they're celebrating  Lo Sound Desert's release and the London premiere with a screening of the long 2-part version (incl. bladder-friendly intermission) at one of the The Desert Fest location's The Black Heart, featuring bands live on stage after the screening and a getting out of hands DJ-party afterwards.
