Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The title 'Parallel' refers to the band's dual album personas—Automatic's introspection and Monster's distorted garage rock—released barely a year apart.
These videos premiered when MTV still played music, making this a time capsule of when bands mattered enough to get feature-length compilations.
