The Upside Down movie, which tells the story of Creation Records, looks set to be one of the essential rock docs of 2011. All the major players who made key records for the label seem to be in the film, which will be released on DVD in early May. There’s also a soundtrack for the movie due out on May 9, which features a head-spinning collection of greatest hits from the label, although there are some notable absentees (why no My Bloody Valentine?). Check out the track listing below, and the trailer for the film above.

I would've loved to see a third disc of Creation "also-rans," at least when compared to the bands featured in the doc: the Pastels, Felt, and my personal favorite forgotten shoegaze band, Adorable. MBV is definitely a glaring omission, but still really psyched for this documentary.
This sounds pretty cool.
