"From the "War on Hippies" to the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, the story of Modern Lovers is a high octane tale of Brutalist architecture, rock 'n' roll ambition and the struggle for identity in a changing world. One of punk rock's foundational documents, the archetype for indie obsession and all but disowned by its author, The Modern Lovers was an album doomed by its own coolness from day one.

Ralph, zesendertig jaar, cameraman voor een regionale televisiezender en minnaar van een getrouwde vrouw, besluit op een dag de kwaadaardigheid van de mensen in het algemeen en die van hemzelf in het bijzonder niet langer voor lief te nemen. Van nu af aan heeft hij nog slechts één streefdoel in zijn leven: het creëren van wat hij zelf hardnekkig als 'gezelligheid' aanduidt. De gevolgen zijn op zijn zachtst gezegd drastisch te noemen.
