Danny Barnes - Pathos of Smyke

pathos of smyke. sometime around 1998, i got the idea to just put out some weird stuff on my own that i was doing outside of labels and bands. pathos of smyke was a collective title i gave to a series of 100 different cds with different songs and different covers. they were signed and numbered. i would just get up in the morning and start working and make stuff. they sold for 25 bucks. they sold very quickly. that was my first one. MBR 1. it was pretty refreshing because it was easy and fun and super creative. you know all that stuff that musicians complain about in regard to releasing stuff and playing in bands? there was zero hassle involved in pathos of smyke. the covers were hand made out of cereal boxes and scraps of paper and stuff. SOLD OUT
