As a fixture of 90s alt rock and considered legends by many of their peers, Failure is a band that still has stature to this day. They’ve now announced that their new documentary ‘Every Time You Lose Your Mind’ will be hitting Hulu and Disney + June 27th.

The documentary follows the band from inception to present, and features interviews with David Dastmalchian, Margaret Cho, Hayley Williams, Jason Schwartzman, Tommy Lee, Maynard James Keenan, Butch Vig, Rick Beato and more. 

“Our fans have connected with the themes of depression and addiction in our music,” notes Andrews. “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.”

To celebrate the streaming release, the film will make its big screen debut on June 26th at the Harmony Gold Theater in Los Angeles, CA with the band performing a rare acoustic set before the film starts. Limited tickets are available here: https://www.failurebandvip.com.
