Reviews
MsJadey
"Very interesting. Very, very original. I'm not sure if I like it, but I am interested in seeing more. I don't think I could say if I like it without seeing all of it. Much more emphasis on gritty realism -- think 'Downtown' and other late night NA animated shows."
ceazyleo
"Very intriguing. If it wasn't for something for this club, I would skip this series for something more fantasy. I would describe as a diamond in the rough."
Joe
"Great music, but the characters don't grab me."
Kenneth
"Another charming and clever teenage drama. Though it could see more music element of it. Neat Hendrix riff at the end though."
Aries
"Awesome, funny, all around great show. I would highly recommend it. Realistic characters and a show of the hardships of that time."
humanbean
"intersting look. -well- drawn out characters. good writing."
Ultra Rob
"Well animated and written, they've done a very realistic and entertaining job of creating a story about a rock band. Highly recommended for the teen set."
