This was enjoyable enough, but really nothing special. The ‘plot', such as it was, resolves around an all-girl group called Led Salad as they take part in a bunch of battles of the bands with other bands. Not ‘performing music' battles of the bands, but actual physical battles, with rocket launchers and samurai swords and the like.

Basically, though, the plot is an excuse to hang together a bunch of action scenes, sight gags, and cheesy T&A shots. It's done in a way that's over-the-top and tongue-in-cheek, so it's tolerable, but not anything special.

If you're looking to read comics with rock and roll, you'd be much better served with other titles like Scott Pilgrim or Hopeless Savages. I gave this one 3 stars, but it's really more a 2.5/5 than a true 3.
