It was completely different from any way they have ever made an album before. Every song was recorded live, completely improvised, and with a drum beat from an electric keyboard. The band has yet to publicly release the album. The band has also released an album entirely composed of songs with the word "Girl" in it called "Girl Songs."
+-The band's most notable songs are "Mike Needs Pussy" and "Mike Got Laid"; They are generally what the band opens and closes shows with.

+Jason's Innocence is an Acceptive lo-fi band out of Jamestown, North Dakota. This band was formed during winter 2006, but there is also a lot bigger story to them. [[Jason's Innocence]] was formed after a mockumentary Sam and Nick had done about a band that broke up 15 years ago and then reunited. This is that story. 20 years ago Sam was playing at a club called "The Pink Flamingo" with some people and Nick saw him and thought it would be really awesome if they were in a band together. So the next day Nick ran into Sam, with his car, and asked him if he'd like to be in a band.  Sam in pain but not in serious condition said, "Yeah sure." So that was it the band started recording, Sam had a lot to get off his mind. It appeared the band had a very raw angry sound and kept almost no rhythm. They developed a humongous cult status and ended up going on world tours, but refused to ever sign a record label with anyone because they wanted to be completely independent. So they relied on only the money they made at the concerts they played for $5. Sam during this time was growing an ego in the band, where as Nick stayed down to earth. Sam also developed a drug problem that was just wrecking all their live performances. Nick decided he'd deal with it until one day when they were up on stage in front of thousands of people and Sam quit in a middle of a song and yelled at Nick because Nick was playing guitar while he was singing. That was the last straw for the band, they broke up until the winter of 2006 when a documentary was being made about the two and they were asked to reunite with each other for the first time in years. Both members agreed to do the show since they were in need of money. During their time broken up they both had attempted solo careers but failed terribly. They had also both started bands with [[Cameron Leben]] that were both on the rise at the time of their reuniting. So when they reunited it was as if the fire that they had at the beginning of their career was rekindled. Sam was no longer and egotistical drug addict and Nick was just as cool as he always had been. They got into the studio as fast as they could and recorded a Greatest Hits album of their old songs since they were strictly a live band before.

+So sometime in April 2006 they recorded a brand new cd called "Reunicorn" which had a different sound then their old stuff but it was better. Then in July they released another cd, "Untitled Post Graduate Project", which has been a huge success.
-The band has a two part music video on youtube featuring the Daniel Johnston covers I Save Cigarette Butts, Casper, Broken Dreams, Crazy Love, and some more maybe. They have also released a few live recording sessions.They also released their biggest concert to date, the free the scene concert, which has 11 tracks which are all also on youtube.
