The third episode of this history of the Twin Cities punk rock greats finds Bob Mould, Grant Hart, and Greg Norton hitting the road, turning itself into America's fastest hardcore band, making its classic first recordings -- 1982's Land Speed Record and "In a Free Land" and 1983's Everything Falls Apart -- and making national waves. Featuring interviews with Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys) and Henry Rollins (Black Flag).
