This gap is what the rockumentary is all about, and "Some Kind of Monster," which concerns the making of the last Metallica album, is a rockumentary for the ages.

 The Filth and the Fury (2000): John Lydon, Steve Jones, Paul Cook, Malcolm McLaren - PopMatters Film Review
But it doesn't: instead, we are left with an uncritical portrait of mid-1970s London, still mired in a general and unexamined postwar dissatisfaction, as well as what winds up being a meaningless reference to the working class backgrounds of the bandmembers.
Archival footage is complemented by recent interviews with bandmembers shot in silhouette, presumably to avoid or at least to acknowledge this conventional rockumentary component.
And because the film is really a rockumentary, audiences are left with a fetishized view of the Sex Pistols that renders the movement itself inauthentic.

Because the band members’ personas are so deeply ingrained in the public’s consciousness, and because those personas are closely based on reality (James Hetfield as tortured songwriter; Lars Ulrich as scheming businessman; Kirk Hammett as peacemaker), the film isn’t revelatory except to those who might view the band as a macho monolith.
Terrific subjects, but strangely impersonal and, in the case of the latter, a lack of Gun Club music and Jeffrey Lee himself.
Despite the Warholian concept — handing video cameras to 50 fans at a Beastie Boys show — this is still a good, old-fashioned concert film masterfully edited and eerily reminiscent of another concert film shot at Madison Square Garden 30 years earlier: Led Zeppelin’s The Song Remains the Same.
