publishing inricycled a (inri002)
so, i just spent the last several months flooding everybody's feed with music that i wrote in the 90s as a teenager, criticizing both it and myself and more or less suggesting that you don't bother listening to what i'm spamming you with.
this inri material has been a problem for me for years because quite a bit of it is some of the music i've written that's closest to me (consider i was around 15 when i wrote most of it), but quite a bit of it is also absolutely terrible and unoriginal garbage and it's all intertwined with itself.
i've gone over it a few times and pulled out sections for listenable consumption. it's the only really workable approach. I had never done that for the cassette demos, though.
i wanted everything available for analysis in it's rawest form, that's why i uploaded. but, that's not the material i'd ever send anybody to go listen to. i'm actually really happy that this is finally put together because it gives me a document of myself in early high school (the tenth grade) that i can actually send people towards.
so, no, you probably don't want to listen to the other 90s stuff i was posting. the awful lyrics, the rip-offs, the sometimes terrible playing and other characteristics make those demos of historical value only.
this compilation i've just pulled out, though, is void of all of that and is really quite listenable. if you like noisy grunge/punk/doom/hardcore with a prog/fusion/jazz/blues flair (and can handle the odd ambient or psychedelic pop embellishment) then you might get some enjoyment out of it. i was a pretty talented little guitarist...

i've released a dozen different things with the title "inricycled", making it more of a concept than a release. it's not just the material i'm recycling, now, it's the idea of recycling material.
i hope this is the final iteration. the difference, here, is that i'm trying to isolate segments of songs that people interested in my more recent compositions would find interesting. these fragments aren't entirely void of lyrics, but they're very minimal. they're also quite short.
i've retitled most of the tracks to get a feel of what the music sounds like and/or what i was thinking as i was writing it.
the material in this volume is taken from the following cassette demos:
jasonparent.bandcamp.com/album/inri-cassette-demo-1 (1996)
jasonparent.bandcamp.com/album/inri-cassette-demo-2 (1997)
this is the best possible absolute starting point for my musical material.
sequenced and mildly modified in dec, 2013. as always, please use headphones.
