Londres, 1997. Les groupes pop comme Blur, Oasis et Radiohead règnent en maîtres sur les ondes. Steven Stelfox, 27 ans, producteur de musique et chasseur de talents, écrase tout sur son chemin. Poussé par sa cupidité, son ambition et une quantité inhumaine de drogues, il recherche le prochain tube. C'est l'époque d'un business où les carrières se font et se défont. A mesure que les tubes se font plus rares, il tente de désespérément de sauver sa carrière. (Chrysalis Films)

I'd hate for anyone to think I have anything against movies where there's constant drinking, snorting, fucking, swearing, and the occasional surprisingly brutal bleeding, but with this one I couldn't shake the feeling that I was listening to a nineteen-year-old McDonald's manager telling stories after his second beer that would put Hunter S. Thompson to shame. In short, you don't believe him and are gradually driven to apathy by all these extremes. The main problem, of course, is not that none of it is true (after all, that should never get in the way of a good story), the problem is that his entire life story is not well told. He doesn't have short subplots to keep you entertained while you're watching him, and he doesn't have the charisma to keep your mind from wandering back to that pretty waitress.
