Previously of such legendary Detroit rock acts as Epileptix, Clone Defects, and Human Eye, Timmy’s Organism has been his vehicle of choice for the last five years or so. Flanked by the powerhouse rhythm section of Blake Hill and Jeff “The Giant” Fournier, Timmy’s Organism makes mutant thug rock that’s equal part caveman discovering fire and alien invasion. 100% TOTAL PUNK! Edition of 500.
