IGGY'S LETTER Dear Dennis, I know this is going to hurt, and for that I am sorry. But I feel as if I've lied to myself for too long. All you do now is reminisce about when you were the world's greatest $wag punk drummer, and your reluctance to get a new job is causing us to struggle financially. I've supported you from the very start, back when you guys put out that God Awful self titled E P. But I still believed in you, and knew you guys would make it. But the truth is I've always had my own dreams, and when I put out my God Awful mixtape, Ignorant Art, I got no encouragement from you. In fact I feel as if our entire relationship has just been this one way street. T.I picked up my mixtape, and he wants me to go to L.A to work with him, so I'm flying to L.A tomorrow to pursue my own career, and to finally move out of your shadow. I still love you, and part of me doesn't want to do this. But I'm sick of massaging your ego and I think it's time we both wake up. So I'm moving to L.A to work work work on my sheeit. Goodbye Dennis. And good luck. Yours Iggy P.S Eoin is actually the hot one.

Yet another concept album about a man's fall from grace.

Dennis Hodges was formerly the drummer of critically acclaimed $wag punk pioneers Impale the Llama. After the separation of his band, Dennis very quickly finds that he has very little purpose in life, besides being the world's greatest $wag punk drummer. He confides in his girlfriend, Iggy, but without a source of income, she very soon leaves him.

With most of his bridges burning, Dennis falls into a deep depression and looks for momentary comfort in a variety of questionable sources, the worst one being a new type of virtual reality porn called "Tabu".

Disgusted by what he has become, Dennis turns to religion for help, seeking solace in the teachings of The S.H.P Church. His new life as a born again S.H.P temporarily brings him outside of his pit of darkness, but very quickly finds that the expectations of his new S.H.P brothers bring him back to that dreaded feeling of lonliness.

Will Dennis restore purpose to his life in time for Christmas?

Listen and find out!
