As an arty misfit teen growing up in the 90s, Elise fell under the spell of grunge and alternative rock. Developing a particular obsession with Jane’s Addiction and Sonic Youth, she elevated musicians Perry Farrell and Kim Gordon into lofty role models, building fantasy worlds around them in her imagination. But it doesn’t take long for the cracks to appear. Elise has to find out: will these artists be true to her imaginary visions when she finally sees them LIVE & IN PERSON? Kill Your Idols is a series about exploring your favorite teenage music from the perspective of middle age. It follows this fan’s one-way relationship with these celebrities over 30 years of transitions and transformations, from MTV and Lollapalooza in the 90s, all the way through marriages and divorces, and finally reunion tours and public breakups.
