London based label/promoters Everything Sucks Music have worked with the makers of the documentary, ‘Don’t Break Down: A Film About Jawbreaker’, to organise a run of UK screenings for the film this December.
Directed by Tim Irwin and produced Keith Schieron, who had previously released the 2005 Minutemen documentary, ‘We Jam Econo’, the film is over decade in the making. It recounts Jawbreaker’s history before, during and after their career. It also features interviews from Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong, Foo Fighters’ Chris Shiflett, Steve Albini and more.

Last month the Seattle emo punks reformed and played their first shows in over twenty one years. They have stated that they’re currently trying to write new music.
