The bastard child of techno raped by hardcore crust/grindcore, SCHIZOID confounds with alarming screams of anguish and paranoia over top of an arcade soundtrack of punker-than-fuck gabber-electrocity... The 2nd attack, "ALL THINGS ARE CONNECTED" will leave you tranced and trampled - proceed with caution...Band/artist history
Kitchener, Canada's SCHIZOID exploded onto the underground scene in 1998 with a ruthless combination of hardest technoise meets blackened grindpunkcore stlye, and since then has left his mark. After fronting other local infamous punk, thrash, and spazzcore bands in the area, J.Schizoid took to producing extreme electronic music, which has been accused by one review of being "the sound of music's worst nightmare." SCHIZOID's digital hardcore powerviolence paints a bleak picture of the collective human reality with haunting political and mental revolution-prone alarms, while renouncing any elitist and pre-established musical rules or conventions
1999: The 10 track "Enough Is Enough!!!" is released, a haunting mix of sped-up Rotterdam stabs, oldschool rap loops, death metal guitar samples and ear-splitting shrieks of discontent and rebellion. It is well received by the underground electronic music media who call it "an all-out-assault on the state of the world (McMaster Silhouette/Nov. 99)" and "just as riot-inducing as any of his peers. (Exclaim Magazine/Aug. 99)".
Networking with the DIY collective DTRASH Records, SCHIZOID finds himself in good company, a competent crew of online hardcore digital trash programmers including DJ Rabies, CPUWar, Renegade Android, ENSC and Bastards United. The attention of the album paves the way for invitations onto Burzum/Brutal Truth/Pink Floyd tribute albums, as well as independent hard-industrial-noise compilations on Beergut Recordings, a track on a 9xCD Meathead Records Canadian music box set, and on a collaborative compilation by the extreme artists on mp3.com.
2000: SCHIZOID prepares a new batch of demo material which shows promise and is mailbombed to industrial/noise/techno music outlets in the scene everywhere. The word gets out. Meanwhile, the initial incarnation of DTRASH crashes and burns after receiving acclaim for the first few releases, with the other DJs and groups pursuing different musical directions - J.Schizoid sits in the driver's seat and paves the way or a future generation of the best online digital-punks to release their sonic creations to the public and receive the necessary exposure though the label.
SCHIZOID ascends the underground CD/R trappings later with the second full-length album, "All Things Are Connected", recorded for the new DTRASH* TECHNOLOGIES line, the first of the label's pressed and professionally minded CD releases - The disc floors the scene with a grinding political and anti-religious minded attack combining "the most hostile elements of black and grind metal with digital hardcore and gabba, a sensory assault on the ears and mind." (Industrial.Org/Apr. 01) The CD spawns a 60+ different artist remix collaboration "Grim Prospects" downloadable online, and containing the best reworkings and regurgitations of the classic title track.
2001: dtrashrecords.com goes online - setup to strike a permanent blow as a formidable force of music producers on the internet - The DTRASH MP3 catalogue is placed online to expose the new generation to the sounds in the classic releases that deserve to be heard.
SCHIZOID enters the live circuit as a band, joined by noisecore terrorist .miQ from Zymotic, noCore (guitars/harsh electronics) playing at various techno crew parties, and as well opens for Ec8or, Faxed Head (Trey Spruance/Mr . Bungle) shows in Toronto to different amazed and tranced audiences. J. Schizoid also works with .miQ on a psychodelic and mechanical side project EXIST, which spawned two releases that year, frightening and delighting listeners. Other works in progress include a safety-prone breakcore EP "Emergency Instructions" to be released in 2002, a role as bassist/vocalist of local "true-blackmetal" band Dead of Winter and other remix collaborations, compilation appearances.
2002: With many live shows already performed this year, this is the busiest one yet. SCHIZOID continues to attack with an onslaught of exciting and new music - In April 2002, the SCHIZOID project comes full circle and beyond, with the inclusion of tracks on influential label Digital Hardcore Recordings' 3xCD showcase of the finest of the new breed, also including side project EXIST, and other comrades in armsThis leads to a North American distribution deal through which SCHIZOID's "All Things.." disc and UNITUS' "Cross Contamination" were both 're-released' under DHR and given proper distribution in stores. The Canadian media is taking notice at this point and SCHIZOID is awarded a full page article in EXCLAIM! Magazine about the DHR distribution as well as conducting an hour long interview for Brave New Waves, a program on Canada's national radio station CBC, which features SCHIZOID/DTRASH in a special interview. SCHIZOID releases the debut "J.Schizoid" EP through mp3.com as a different face of the SCHIZOID reality. Shows throughout the year rock Ontario audiences, even including an opening spot for MERZBOW who SCHIZOID and co. brought into Canada for his first Toronto appearance ever. SCHIZOID is also invited in December to appear for a full hour on CIUT FM Toronto's EBM Show where he unveils a custom DJ set of recent remixes and material.
2003: SCHIZOID spends the rest of 2002 compiling material and putting together plans for 2003's "Rising Tide Compilation" pressed CD for DTRASH Records - this will feature 2 exclusive songs, which J describes as 'the best SCHIZOID material ever recorded to date'. Through Schizoid.org, the ambient drone "Static Dynamics" album recorded in 2002 is released, with plans for "Divided and Conquered", a concept ambient album based on old Dr. Who episodes. In the summer, SCHIZOID is set to release "Covered in Metal" the long delayed full length release, which will consist of covers of SCHIZOIDs favorite oldschool blackmetal/meta/industrial material, attempting to bridge the gap between heavy metal and digital hardcore even further.Have you performed in front of an audience?SCHIZOID has shared the stage with MERZBOW, EC8OR, FAXED HEAD and countless others at shows across Ontario, Canada.
