After their lead singer abruptly quits the band, three girls must recruit a new singer and learn some new songs before the big talent contest at their high school. The plot is classic rock n' roll drama, as the girls endure the petty, comic cruelties of high school and t. Featuring a searing performance/cover of the Blue Hearts' "Linda Linda," a soundtrack by the Smashing Pumpkins' James Iha, and a cameo by the Ramones, this is a modern Japanese musical sure to resonate with teenage music mavens.

"An extremely well-written, emotionally complex coming-of-age tale that has a John Hughesian respect for teenage angst" - G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle
"Funny, droll, sweetly directed and note-perfect" - Wally Hammond, Time Out New York
