In 1998, tricil released a debut, the Face EP. The sound was dark, electronic and heavy.
It's Been Worth It followed in 2000, bringing forth a more moody, sound design-oriented approach whilst the title track is among tricil's most melodic symphonic works to date. For the four years that followed, John attended college and continued writing music, as well as playing guitar for State of Unrest.
2004 saw the release of the Severed EP, which brought tricil back to equal parts guitar based songwriting and DSP-based sound design. the EP would later be expanded into an album called The Secret Life, and eventually beget a wildly acclaimed project of the same name.
In 2007, after a successful month-long national tour with the Nerd Parade, tricil released his first EP in three years, Esoteric Drift. A culmination of the past, present, and future stylistic leanings, Esoteric Drift travels forward from shoegazing guitar to crunchy IDM to danceable electronica and even a bizarre funked-up synthpop/metal hybrid. Esoteric Drift is available for free from the pelican dump.
My new band, Odist, is looking for an experienced vocalist to sing to Progressive/Experimental melodies (Mars Volta, Les Claypool, Radiohead influenced music ). Preferably someone who uses their voice as an instrument.
