"TOXIC GARBAGE is like that perfect punk song: Dirty, propulsive, immediate, infused with anarchist spirit. And it's carried by a rag-tag central cast that, despite their flaws and scars, clearly care for each other. The balance Losack strikes between light and dark is killer." - Rob W. Hart, MysteriousPress.com "Elegant writing with well-crafted characters." - Bradley Sands, author of TV SNORTED MY BRAIN and SORRY I RUINED YOUR ORGY "TOXIC GARBAGE is a power chord of dissonance, black comedy back beats pushed up against a bittersweet bass narrative that vibrates through your spine, leaving your heart pounding, your stomach in knots, and a strong desire to kick something into submission." - Richard Thomas, author of STARING INTO THE ABYSS "Like all good punk, Kelby Losack's TOXIC GARBAGE blasts at a volume previous generations will find uncomfortable. This gripping debut gives readers a mohawked, pierced, Black Flag-worshiping descendant of Southern grit brutes like Harry Crews and Frank Bill. TOXIC GARBAGE starts around midnight and only gets darker from there with a potent mix of punk rock, dead bodies in duffle bags, heroin addiction, doomed road trips and, most importantly, the sunrise-bright glow of redemption." - Patrick Wensink, bestselling author of BROKEN PIANO FOR PRESIDENT Tommy kicks his heroin addiction, good for him, but now there's a corpse in his duffle bag and he's Mexico bound with his punk rock band mates and a six-year-old boy. Told by multiple characters in a back-and-forth narrative,TOXIC GARBAGE is a darkly funny and raw tale of troubled and eccentric friends.
