{"product_id":"thumbsucker-tim-delaughter","title":"Thumbsucker (Tim DeLaughter)","description":"Amazon.com\n\nThe indie drama Thumbsucker, pertaining to a 14-year old boy struggling with the habit that gives the movie its title, gets the symphonic treatment with this original score by Tim DeLaughter of The Polyphonic Spree. Mingling with the flowery orchestration and flute trills are three tracks by the late Elliott Smith, who was involved in the early development of the film with director Mike Mills. While Spree fans have come to expect the full sonic overload of the 20+ strong ensemble, DeLaughter's best track is the one where he picks up a guitar and sings sans backing band, \"Wonderful You.\" DeLaughter is in a delicate situation here, sharing the disc with the superior song craft of Smith. Smith's contributions, including \"Let’s Get Lost\" from From a Basement on the Hill and the never-before-released \"Thirteen\" and \"Trouble\" only hint at what this soundtrack might have been. While DeLaughter's tracks make good film music, Smith's stand upright on their own, regardless of context. Ultimately, both contributors provide the soundtrack with a feeling of adolescent melancholy well suited for the film. -- Ryan Boudinot\n\nProduct Description\n\nThis soundtrack was written and recorded by Tim DeLaughter, frontman for The Polyphonic Spree and also features three tracks from late singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, including the original \"Let's Get Lost\" and covers of Big Star's \"Thirteen\" and Cat Stevens' \"Trouble,\" the latter believed to be among the last tracks he ever put to tape.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000AMJEIW\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000AMJEIW.N\u003cbr\u003eCondition: New\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:The Polyphonic Spree|Smith, Elliott\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Dream Books Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41515859411002,"sku":"DBV.B000AMJEIW.N","price":12.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/6011\/0138\/files\/B000AMJEIW-0.jpg?v=1783709126","url":"https:\/\/shop.dreambooksco.com\/products\/thumbsucker-tim-delaughter","provider":"Dream Books Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
