Instrument is a 1999 film by Jem Cohen about , and Instrumental Soundtrack collects 18 mostly instrumental tracks that were used as audio backdrop for the documentary. The album consists of mostly unreleased demos, outtakes, sketches, and ideas drawn from and End Hits sessions, and perhaps the most interesting is "I'm So Tired," a piano ballad sung by Ian MacKaye, which obviously is a stylistic departure for the band.
