BY Gregory AdamsPublished Mar 9, 2015

The first trailer for Destroy Cleveland, an upcoming documentary on the Midwestern city's hardcore scene, has been unveiled. As you'll see below, it's a promising preview that packs in plenty of aggression, pyro and reflections on scene legends like Integrity, Ringworm and more.

As explained in a statement, director Matt Greenfield's film presents a timeline between 1986 and the present. It's also noted that the Clevo hardcore scene "was notorious for its violence and mayhem." As such, the teaser is full of painful-looking mosh pit moments, footage of fireworks being thrown into the crowd, an outdoor confrontation with cops and more.

As Integrity vocalist Dwid puts it at the end for the trailer: "Throughout the whole time there was friction."

Though it's unclear when the film will make its official debut, it will come loaded with interviews with members of Integrity, 9 Shocks Terror, H 100s, One Life Crew, and more.
