The Los Angeles-based collective Detroit Illharmonic Symphony has released their new album, ‘Everything Is Shattered’, a wild mashup of punk, indie rock, hip hop, and cinematic chaos, straight from California’s legendary Geza X Records. The lead track, the high-energy post-punk anthem “Everything Is Shattered,” features southern California punk pioneer Jack Grisham (TSOL) alongside future superstar Max Galbreath on vocals, recorded and produced by Paul Roessler. The album continues to deliver bold genre-fusing moments, including Keith Morris (Circle Jerks, Black Flag) contributing vocals on the psychedelic surf-punk track “If You Cooperate,” with violin from Cecilia Suhr.
These two songs, and others on the 14-track collection, come from the bold 2025 animated motion picture I’d Rather Be Turned Into Cat Food, written and directed by Walter Santucci and produced by Evil Cat Land. Fusing elements of punk, indie rock, classical music, hip hop, and soul, the album brings to life fantasies of TSOL jamming with the Beastie Boys in a Quentin Tarantino movie. With a rich diversity on display—from the 70s soul of “Doo Doo On A Stick” to the hip-hop cool of “Welcome to Fear City”—this latest record, which is also available on a limited-edition translucent blue vinyl 7” single, is loaded with punk attitude, cinematic soundscapes, and hip hop swagger, perfect for unique, left-of-center playlists.
