this book is totally worth reading, but the tone does seem a little depressing at times. in the sense that they sorta for a while thought they were gonna hit it big in the early 90's but didn't. i feel like that was a big theme in the book. which im sure at the time it was felt. i feel like sy are so comfortable with who they are, that yeah maybe at that point it was a bit of a let down but they got over it. i feel like the book didn't really give creedance to the little niche they carved out for themselves in the later 90's and into the 00's. in the book it seems like it was all a let down after daydream like someone said. but there was a ton of shit i didn't know about before. like more info into when lee almost quit during the genetic fiasco or that kim dated danny elfman when they were teenagers. anyways, read it. its great. mostly.
