Certainly on the indie side of this theme, 90's grunge/punk band the Gits could have been one of the best bands of their generation. Tragically, their lead singer, Mia Zappata, was brutally raped and murdered days before signing a record deal with Atlantic Records. Over 10 years later, with her murderer in jail, their music is slowly re-emerging and gaining the respect they never received, but so rightfully deserved.
Kerry O'Kane's documentary (available on Netflix) highlights the band's short-lived career with tons of footage and live recordings from the early to mid-90s.
No video available, but a tremendous song with powerful lyrics. Worth a listen, so get to it!
