It's only indie. Hardly heavy music.

There's been plenty of rock tracks already on the series: Born to be Wild and Poison for a start, off the top of my head.

And yes, rock fans do karaoke too. Look at Rock Star:INXS' popularity.

Since they're all signed to major labels or subsidiaries thereof, it's unlikely they've got a choice as to what happens with their music. If they're really lucky, they'll get paid.

I really don't think Kareoke is a good idea for most of these bands. The last thing these bands need is their lyrics exposed for the rubbish they are when people can read what they're actually singing.

I'm going to buy this. That's all.

Rather than "inspiring" Hole as the press blurb suggests, I thought Courtney Love founded and lead the band.

I'd kinda hoped the Nirvana Corporate Rock Whores shirts were ironic.
