The band Triton is on its way to an isolated farmhouse in Canada, much to almost everyone's chagrin, but for band leader and lead singer John Triton, it's all in the best interests of creating music with the least possible distraction. But instead of having lots of time to record a little music and make sure it's perfect, the band runs into all sorts of distractions -- those of the sexual nature, but mainly those of the demonic nature.
