sounds like a long-forgotten notepad from a dead poet that later becomes a beautiful collection

some more info -- 'A Dot Running For The Dust' was written and recorded after 'Nothing in Rambling', but got lost due to a hard-drive crash, after which Jason moved on and ended up creating 'Dromomania'. luckily Jason managed to retrieve the recordings later on and released them as a bonus disc to 'Dromomania', and my hunch is indeed that this 2024 reissue concerns some remaster

As a long-time Duster fan it has taken me over half a decade before I properly got into Helvetia. But sweet lord, Junk Shop and Headless Machine are two absolute 5/5 indie rock masterpieces. Jason's songwriting really is something else. Absolutely thrilled to discover the rest of this awesome discography.

I loved Jason Albertini 30+ years ago when I first met him. I remember growing up with him in Switzerland, we used to be best buds at our local elementary school. I knew him all the way from Preschool to like 10th grade before he moved away. Broke my heart. Never spoke to the guy after he left. I sent him a letter one time but it was sent back to me and I didn't even bother trying to write another. Felt like it was better left unsent. Fast forward to like 2010. I had known about his band Helvetia for awhile. I saw the dude at some venue. I went to go talk to him and he literally just kept walking away every time I tried to speak with him. I wasn't sure if he was just like couldn't hear me because the opener was so loud, or if he was just being a dick for no reason. Finally, he sat down at the bar and I tried to strike up a chat with him and he just socked me right in my face, knocking out around 5 of my teeth. Had to go to the ER. Every witness said I punched him. It went so far (1/2)

that before our first court hearing, he literally had 5 of his teeth extracted to make it look like I PUNCHED HIM. His defense for me not having 5 teeth was that he knew I was a bad brusher when I was younger (and admittedly, I was, still am to this day). He also faked an entire video, where he CGI'd me into fake security footage to make it look like I just punched the shit out of him and didn't stop. He brought multiple fake witnesses in to testify against me. Ultimately, he won. I am currently writing this from prison. I have charges for attempted murder and battery, and am serving 15 years. I wanted to share my story to burn this motherfucker to the ground. P.S, I've known Jason way longer than you, poser. (2/2)

I knew him back in '69 when all our old high school buddies were coming back from the war, he and I would sit back and talk for hours about the future, he even predicted that regan would run for president. We'd sneak out coors 16 ouncers back to our trailer park and watch mork and mindy together and talk to this kid bill junior. He was a daredevil back then, but after bill junior died on a fair ride one year, jason moved out, got some plastic surgery and started a band. Cool guy
