The World in Broken Glass

The World in Broken Glass is a three-piece screamo band started in March of 2022. It has played 40 or 50 shows in the midwest. We have only gotten louder, faster, and more jaded. I currently play a left-handed Harley Benton Stingray clone through a 1970's Kustom Bass Head that pushes 400 watts through my Peavey 410. THe guitarist uses something nice and shiny plugged through a Fender Roc Pro 1000 and a Hartke 412 I got from some guy on Craigslist who quit his Pearl Jam cover band. The drummer prefers not to be mentioned.

dark middle chapter

So dark middle chapter (dark middy) is my bedroom screamo solo project. Started in earnest in 2020, '...the way this all turned out' is the project's first full release. Characterized by short bursts of guitar noise and screaming, this is where I first started to really see myself in my art. The project has since evolved into harsh noise and ambient work, but I'm still damn proud of this record. Maybe it's sequel will come out eventually.

DSZY

DSZY is the solo jungle project that began while recovering from an injury that stopped me from being able to play guitar. Instead, I found solace in 184 bpm and silly chopped breaks. All of my electronic material is available on my Soundcloud. My debut LP was released 01/07/23.

fun.2

fun.2 is the collaborative noise project between myself and my creative partner Max. Focusing on live performance and improvisation, fun.2 tries to find the perfect balance between noise and dance, desolation and goofiness. The first live show was at the Riot Room Bloomington, the birthplace of my DIY journey.

xBODYKEEPSTHESCOREx

xBODYKEEPSTHESCOREx is the only real emoviolence band in the midwest. There will be no released music for the forseeable future. There is one recorded instance of the band recorded. As with most live performances, it began with 11 minutes of harsh noise, followed by approximately 6 minutes of emoviolence. The core of the sound is the two mixers plugge dinto each other, this is also the only input for the vocals and guitar. The resulting sound is intentional.
