American Satan is the story of a young rock band, half from England half from the US, who move to the Sunset Strip to chase their music dreams. In the land of dreams, they quickly wake up to reality and the realization that manna will not drop from heaven.  Living in a van, their passion and talent exceed their means to survive. Adding salt to injury, the mother (Denise Richards) of the lead singer Johnny Faust (Andy Biersack) dies after a protracted illness.
