SYNOPSIS: Stack of Corpses, a struggling rock band, is desperately in need of a hit song to reignite their dwindling fame. In their quest for success, two of the band members, BASS and DRUMS, devise a cunning plan to steal a deceased rock star's song from under the nose of his grieving widow. Meanwhile, lead singer BRIAN and their manager LARRY believe they have the perfect solution – turning to a Russian gangster for assistance. Caught in the midst of this chaotic journey is KEYS, a classical pianist who battles fierce competition to join the band, only to realize the sheer laziness and irresponsibility that lurks within its members.
