In the dour and dense follow-up to The Trismus Candidate, a bouncer explores subversive tribalism, political division, and his own regret during the height of the indie rock scene in Omaha, Nebraska. Achingly honest, DROSS observes contemporary contradictions through the dingy filter of one man's shame. | Purchase
