The show has excellent characters, who are all well rounded and fleshed out. Generally, they all have distinct and interesting chemistry.

Unfortunately, this is very much a product of its time (accepted conservative culture of the 90s/2000s) : there is a lot of casual sexism and very staunch female gender roles present. For me, I tolerated this up to about the 2/3rds way mark before I had had enough, because the show threw extreme pro-lifism into the mix too. It is strange to think that a show about a punk band would have such strong conservative tendencies, but the author's viewpoint on certain parts of society rather clearly shines through.

If you can stomach the conservative tendencies of the show, the actual character dynamic is great, and well done.
