New TBS

I recall with equal parts laughter and fear the day that the Postal Police, for lack of a better term, showed up at my door. As this was shortly after 9/11 and I had just sent a box of CD's to a Japanese distributor, it seems the fact said box was marked with manufacturer information, the least of which read "TIME BOMB SYM", it seems the USPS kinda freaked out and decided to take no chances, thus returning the box to me.

Soonafter, I kinda walked away from the name, not wanting to cause any further confusion.

Upon my return to Chicago, though, I soon came to realize that if I played a club as Darren Robbins, or Destroy The Heart (the name under which I released my most recent CD), I was gonna have to play for the door. If I performed as Time Bomb Symphony, though, the money was noticably better. Right around this same time, not one but two labels came to me within a week of each other expressing interest in issuing a Time Bomb Symphony compilation. Hmm...well, fuck, Time Bomb Symphony it is!

Here's an mp3 of a new tune that will be part of the upcoming compilation effort, Symphonic Majesties Request. The song is called "Blue Flowers".
