⸸✞⸸ 
echoes of a lost paradise sparrows have long flown the nest ringing through the eternal ice your voice just never left when the thunder comes and drowns it you'll find me howling at the clouds screaming i'm not alone i'm not alive im not in love im not then it will rain anew so you can sing again i will run through black and blue to bring you back from the dead i'm not alone i'm not alive im not in love im not alone alive in love how ironic is this little breeze slowly sweeping fallen leaves so we can read as we please these names on the marble steles will you always find me when i'm hiding in the dark i'm not alone i'm not alive im not in love im not

twisted thoughts twisted souls

we jump over hedges
and I can no longer see anything
that is the end of everything 
and the all or nothing
no one can see it anymore
no dream becomes true any more
twisted thoughts 
no plan no new start

we jump over hedges
and we can no longer see anything
that is the end of everything 
and all is nothing
no one can see anymore
no dream becomes true any more
twisted thoughts 
twisted souls
no plan no new start

come on ....

ChouX - Twisted Thoughts Twisted Souls

I just completed this track tonight (Aug 8, 2023) after picking up from an idea I started several months ago this year. This is the first song I've written in 3 years (this month) and I'm quite pleased with the outcome. The finished version will be featured on my upcoming album. I still have a ways to go but I've decided that I will start focusing more time on the new release with hopes of completing it much sooner than anticipated. Stay tuned and thank you for listening and for your continued support.

New Song 03

In a world so vast and empty, illusions fade.
Whispers in the silent night, lost in dreams, lost in silence.
Truth lies in dreams
Looking for a box to put my nightmares in 
Searching for what cannot be found,
In your eyes shines a world not quite as it appears.

1988 - 1996
The inception of Jihad began in 1988 by James Mendez, which is around the time Benestrophe was known locally in San Antonio, Texas, for their unique sound and eccentric performances. Through various experiences and exposure to Benestrophe (live performances and band rehearsals), the inspiration behind Jihad was conceived. Their style of music is comparable to Benestrophe in some ways, in that the compositions are comprised of a traditional verse-chorus structure. In addition, their music introduces various elements containing both electronic and sampled instruments with an overlay of dark / heavy vocals. During this same time period (1988 - 1993), James also collaborated in several side projects such as Fury & Fear with Robert Bustamante of Fektion Fekler, Primary Target (Releasing 'Chant Among Us' between 1989-1990, and recording 'The Churchyard Studio Sessions' in the studio of Benestrophe / Mentallo & The Fixer) and Trial by Fire (Releasing 'The Execution of Witches (Part 1)') with vocalist Jaime Chavez. Sometime after the disbandment of Benestrophe, Richard (ex-vocalist of Benestrophe) and James recorded a few songs, which one of them (Hands That Hide) ended up on the notorious RAS DVA Quadruple Compilation titled 'There Is No Time' released in July 1995. In addition, they also release three exclusive songs on the RAS DVA Fanbase Compilation titled Dora Blue in 1996.

1996 - 2009
Soon after, the Mendez duo were extended an offer to release a full-length album on RAS DVA. This was their debut album titled 'A Prayer in the Night' which was released in May 1997. In the same year, James also remixes False Prophets (Full Frontal Lobotomy Mix) and Mother of Harlots (Multi-National Brain Washer Re-mix) on the Mentallo & The Fixer CD single 'False Prophets'. Shortly after Jihad's first and only release, James decides to invest more time in his career for nearly ten years. Beginning in 2006 - 2008, James befriends other musicians in the dark electronic music scene (primarily in Germany) via social media. This leads to Jihad's first live performance in Trnava, Slovakia, with dear friends from Nordschlacht (aka Pyrroline) in May 2009. It is at this point, where the band consists of only James. Continuing on, he is introduced to Electro Aggression Records, establishing a fellowship among a network of musicians in the dark electronic music scene, spanning throughout various parts of the world (Europe, North and South America). Through this connection, James contributes a number of remixes for bands such as Object, Terminal State, Pyrroline, MC1R, kFactor, The Opposer Divine and several others.

2013 - 2019
Fast forward to 2013, a friendship with Martin Sane (Fïx8:Sëd8) develops where they recognize some common friends in the music scene they've unknowingly developed respectively over the years. Another two years pass and Jihad performs their second live performance at Dark EBM Souls in Bratislava, Slovakia, in February 2015. Later that year, Jihad releases a new live album in November 2015 titled 'Live in Bratislava 28.02.15 | Dark EBM Souls'. The outcome of Jihad's performance at this festival initiates their journey focusing on more live shows between 2015 - 2019 that extend throughout Europe, North and South America.

2020 - Present
As of 2020, it's been approximately twenty-three years since their debut album. Jihad has released a new album titled 'Retrospekt' in April 2020 and you can expect more live performances in 2023 / 2024 to help promote their latest release.
