As the z-axis of our planet tilts away, and a gulf of dusty earth, air and searing fire is revealed before us, Minimal Violence holds an unflinching stare, unveiling Phase Three in an act of pure psychic release. Consecutive of the destruction of Phase One (TRESOR 317EP) and the restructuring of Phase Two (TRESOR 317EP) 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. This third EP of the DESTROY ---> [physical] REALITY [psychic] <--- TRUST 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 luster. As 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. "Flatline" features Mad Johnny.
