Synopsis by Violet LeVoit

For over 25 years, Seton Hall University's influential WSOU 89.5 FM has been a formidable force in championing hard rock and heavy metal to its enthusiastic coterie of listeners. This documentary chronicles the incongruous story of how a Catholic university radio station became a huge force in the metal scene, and what happened when the administration tried to shut it down.
