Iron Sun, Drive, Nightfall, Neon Panda and Five to Five (no, really, those are the names they've apparently chosen) jumped at the opportunity to show off their vocal skills in a riff off that wouldn't have looked out of place in one of Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson's smash hit singing flicks.

Some viewers thoroughly enjoyed the cleverly choreographed opening number.

Was the riff off a complete Pitch Perfect rip off?

Watch the original and decide for yourself.
