The documentary recounts the bittersweet journey of The Zombies, a 60s band featuring Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone, highlighting their significant role in the British invasion of the US music scene amid exploitation and challenges. Their distinctive harmonies contributed to classics like 'She's Not There' and 'Time of the Season.' Despite their musical achievements, the band members faced heart-wrenching decisions about their careers. The film touches on the pressures artists face regarding success and the dilemma of when to continue pursuing a dream versus seeking stability in life.
The Zombies' story in many ways cuts to the heart of the dilemma for everyone who wants to make it in music: when do you cut your losses, give up, take a boring straight job and then torment yourself with the thought of what might have been if only you'd stuck at it a little bit longer?
Their eerie and sublime harmonies, topped off by Blunstone's beautiful, plangent and weirdly vulnerable lead vocals, were the foundation of iconic songs like She's Not There.
