A long-in-works documentary on the alt-rock band Failure will premiere on Hulu on June 27th. The film, titled Every Time You Lose Your Mind, features interviews with Maynard James Keenan, Hayley Williams, Jason Schwartzman, Tommy Lee, Margaret Cho, the late Steve Albini, and more.
An official description of the documentary reads, “Like a falling satellite blazing across the musical landscape, Failure flamed-out in the late ‘90s – their promising rise derailed by drug addiction and record company inertia. But the pioneering trio left a profound imprint that transcended their affiliation with the LA alt-rock scene. Every Time You Lose Your Mind documents the origins, downfall and rebirth of a band that’s beloved by their peers and multiple generations of fans.”
Singer-guitarist Ken Andrews added, “Our fans have connected with the themes of depression and addiction in our music. The film crystallizes those connections and, ultimately, communicates hope. We’re a band that faced a specific set of challenges and somehow managed to survive and thrive. It’s a story about resilience, finding ways to cope, and not giving up.”
