Would love for everyone to check out the Ivy Dye - Lyme Times submission. I spent a lot of time on it.

I like it. Good job on your first release :)

THE WALLIES!

Last weekend my best friends and I fully produced a short stoner time travel flick in less than 48 hours. I starred in it and also wrote the script. I'm the main dude with the beard. If you dig it, you can check out my band, VIDEO ARCADE (formerly Holy Hounds), here: www.facebook.com/videoarcade. RIYL: The Stooges, Nirvana, The White Stripes, Tom Waits, and The Beach Boys.

Thank you for reading and hope you enjoy!

Thanks!

Would love it if people told me what they think of Garbage Elitist - The Tender-hearted Kidnappers. I'm a one man band and I'm pretty proud of it as a punk album.

I like your EP..thank you!

Along with our single "Daydreamer" above, Thrift Store Talent have a Kickstarter Project that is still up for 2 more weeks. Donate $1, and you'll get the entire 12-track album. The album will also be available as a free download later on this year, for those who can't afford to donate. Here's a video explaining our stance:

Thank you all for your generous support!
