There is a scene described but not shown where a character throws musical equipment at their romantic partner during an argument, causing the partner to ‘snap’.

A character says he was abused as a child, but notes that it was "musical in nature" and that he was forced to listen to music he disliked.

No broken bones on screen, a character does describe a past event where someone’s jaw was wired shut; the description isn’t graphic.

Characters seem bemused when their bandmate transitions but they don't say anything negative.

The movie is filmed in a mockumentary style, so the characters talk to the audience directly throughout the film.

There is a very transphobic scene at the end of the film when one of the characters is revealed to be a trans woman. The character's identity, appareanece, clothing, and voice are all played for comedy.
There is very little buildup to this reveal so the scene can easily blindside a viewer if they don't know it's coming.

There is no explicit misgendering, but in the epilogue it’s revealed one of the characters is a trans woman and her identity is played as a joke. It’s hard to see the way the topic is portrayed in this film as anything other than transphobic.

A character is revealed to be a trans woman at the end of the film, it is a very stereotypical and offensive depiction.
