Injuring Yourself Whilst Making Music

Injuring Yourself Whilst Making Music is the third release by Gyroscope and was released April 2001. The compilation was recorded at Perth, Western Australia's Revolver Studios Couch with producers Laurie Sinagra and Gav Tempany.

"The cassette was essentially a compilation of both the Gyroscope EPs of the 2000/2001 era. Scalectrix was pressed on compact disc and released in April 2000 Means to an End (loosely titled the 'end of an era' sessions) was recorded in December/January 2001, yet never saw release. The decision to compile this cassette was made in order to tie the loose ends of a graded era and sow the seeds for a new". - Gyroscope web site

The cassette was released with four different coloured covers - green, red, yellow and purple. Only a limited run of 500 copies was produced.

Famous quotes containing the words injuring, making and/or music:

    As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    For every nineteenth-century middle-class family that protected its wife and child within the family circle, there was an Irish or a German girl scrubbing floors in that home, a Welsh boy mining coal to keep the home-baked goodies warm, a black girl doing the family laundry, a black mother and child picking cotton to be made into clothes for the family, and a Jewish or an Italian daughter in a sweatshop making “ladies” dresses or artificial flowers for the family to purchase.
    Stephanie Coontz (20th century)

    A woman drew her long black hair out tight
    And fiddled whisper music on those strings
    And bats with baby faces in the violet light
    Whistled, and beat their wings
    And crawled head downward down a blackened wall....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
