Schism

About Me

Been told I'm "pretty" (blame Chloroform Kisses for that one); rest assured I'm ugly on the inside. I'm inspired by poets and anarchists, 808-heavy beats, distorted guitars, and anger - sometimes, that's all ya got. Your rage.
I make intellectual music for the drunk and irritable, the spun out and unreachable.
I want to turn this world upside down, put it on its ear, take back control of my life. I want my own corner of the world where I can sit and ruminate, stew in my quiet introspection, fish out the indifference, make you dance to it, and know that you, out there, who's just as out of options, just as lacking in things to be proud of, and just as pissed off about it, aren't alone. I know there're a lot of you.
My name's Schism. I make punk for rappers, blues for the broken, and poetry for the down and out. Enjoy, and remember to drink irresponsibly.
