Artist description Side project of DTRASH Record's SCHIZOID, the J SCHIZOID project is comprised of compositions of droning ambient disassociativity. Smoke a bowl, take a pill, and then close your eyes - Your body and physical constrictions dematerialize to cosmic dust of the Universe. A pinprick in the whole of everything and nothing, you float eternally and endlessly in a slow descent towards the Ultimate understanding of yourself and the different ingredients of reality.

Artist History J was in a few bands when located in Stratford, Ontario, mostly punk and grindcore. J moved to Kitchener, and played in some bands before starting SCHIZOID. SCHIZOID pummelled the digital hardcore scene with furious blackened guitars and true anger - Sometime later, J reached the third plateau and saw things very differently. Behold, the infinity.

Press Reviews 'During the various stages of the third plateau experience, one may glimpse one's life and self from a wholly external perspective. This may occur in the form of 'my life flashed before my eyes' or some more abstract form. I don't know how others have experienced this phenomenon, but for me it is one of the most profound emotional experiences a human being can have. During these moments, I felt that I understood fully the course and direction and development of my life/self, and, further, I felt a humbling love and compassion for that self and for everything associated with the reality it inhabits. Even having had some distance from my last experience of this, it is difficult to recall it without tears.'
