Desc: Fiftywatthead, a Documentary: Directed by Garth Jackson. Long touted as Canada's loudest band, Windsor-based fiftywatthead endured endless trials and tribulations. Jam space evictions, fires, marathon recording sessions, and long journeys to play gigs with little to no financial reward. With a stubborn determination to make their music, they recorded several great albums and played countless live shows that counted them as one of the region's best live acts. They contributed to the music scene not only in Windsor but in cities up and down highway 401 in Canada. Shot in Windsor, Hamilton, and Toronto, 'fiftywatthead - A Documentary' tells the story of Canada's unsung heavy rock heroes, offering a look at what went into creating their groove-laden sonic assault, while serving as a tribute to the band. And there's a lot more to it than just being loud.
