But a fortuitous meeting with society Trustafarian Guy de Burret boots the unsuspecting Grams straight into the harsh limelight. Helmet can't accept this and the battlelines are drawn.

The Grams camaraderie is soon rent asunder, as a bewildering host of journalists, music moguls and parasites works its sinister magic. Keva has to confont his demons as The Grams have to fight to save their minds, their bodies and their friendship. They win, lose and ultimately, win again in this bacchanalian tale of sex, drugs. And rock'n'roll.
