In a city filled with trust-fund babies and armchair revolutionaries, Heavy Parker rules the punk scene as a benevolent dictator. He sings lead in a local hardcore band. He puts out zines, pseudo-revolutionary material, and flypost propaganda about town. Man, it's good to be king. Or at least it is until Missy, Heavy's girlfriend, goes away for college.

Can Heavy survive a true group of hardcores invading his turf or will he just wind up POUNDED?
