It’s back to the movies for the Rock N Roll Archaeologist! But for the first time the film in question is a fictional narrative dramedy called, The Incoherents and it is directed by Jared Barel and stars Alex Emanuel, who also wrote most of the music. Jared and Alex break down the film and we try our best not to spoil too much, but do consider this a warning!! Maybe watch the film and then listen to the interview?Bruce Flansburgh is a bored, 40-something New York paralegal who hasn’t let go of his dream of rock stardom. While slogging through an increasingly unbearable day to day existence, it dawns on him that the reunions of The Pixies, Soundgarden and other alternative/indie rock bands from the 90’s could inspire his former group, THE INCOHERENTS, to reform. The group Jeff Auer as Bruce the vocalist, Alex Emanuel as Jimmy the Guitarist, Casey Clark as drummer Tyler and Walter Hoffman as bassist Kieth, each mired in some sort of midlife malaise, reunite their 90's indie rock band for one last shot at stardom. Starring Jeff Auer, Alex Emanuel, Walter Hoffman, Casey Clark, Amy Carlson, Annette O’Toole, Kate Arrington, Robert McKay, Margaret Anne Florence, Christine Chang.
