Consecutive of the destruction of Phase One and the restructuring of Phase Two it only seems appropriate that the third phase of the series finds the project reaching a state of transcendence and transition as it also aligns with the shift from a duo to the solo venture of Ash Luk following the departure of co-founder Lida P. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis third EP of the \u003ci\u003eDestroy Reality Trust\u003c\/i\u003e series launches straight into the 145 bpm stomper Flatline. It is a track founded by a family spirit, with lyrics co-written with Luk’s mother and their stepfather Mad Johnny on vocals and guitar. It draws a hoarse chant of passion, \".. nothing matters .. I still love you .. resuscitation .. resurrection ..\" in answer to arching melodic euphoria. Cold (sex) follows down a scorched earth driveway into distorted whistles, detuned melodies and some of the best sequencer abuse out there. We Suffocate on the Violence of Light reveals perhaps the finest expedition so far in Minimal Violence’s particular vein of acid-singed euphoric trance. Its synths smeared and merged unholy, where the drums meddle with the tensions between drum and bass and nail to the ground four to the floor rhythm. Focus On That Form pummels hard within a deep noise volley, scratching hard to rid its environments of any longer lasting lustre. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs ever, the transformative sound of Minimal Violence emerges deep from fire. Denying any uncertain embers an escape route, Luk casts anew from a seemingly unending source of unique energy. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tresor","offers":[{"title":"Black | 12\"","offer_id":50475822186827,"sku":"1142314","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/8843adac-21c9-411f-941d-e65e663459a3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727451149"},{"product_id":"indreams","title":"InDreams","description":"\u003cp\u003eMinimal Violence’s debut album, \u003ci\u003eInDreams\u003c\/i\u003e, is a start-to-finish, full-throttle ride through raw, high energy techno. Their records for some of Vancouver’s best-known labels – like 1080p and Genero as well as Lobster Theremin and Ninja Tune’s Technicolour - have always captured the exhilarating spirit of their live shows.\u003ci\u003e InDreams \u003c\/i\u003ebottles up that livewire, punk energy into its most concentrated form yet. Recording on a haphazard collection of hardware machines, with initial takes often live off the floor to capture the raw energy, Ashlee Luk and Lida P are entrenched in Vancouver’s thriving DIY scene and embrace upfront directness in their no-holds-barred ethos. Influenced by early industrial groups and cyberpunk literature, the record’s themes centre around the dystopian ‘InDreams inc.’ megacorp with rave-inspired, cult imagery designed by Kevin McCaughey (Boot Boyz).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP - Limited white vinyl in black popset sleeve.
