This album signifies a departure from the original rules and structures established by Margaret Chardiet forPharmakon, evolving into a new form. It retains the project’s experimental roots in power electronics and noise while incorporating industrial and punk influences.The album stems from a profound disgust with humanity’s dysfunctional relationship with the environment and other life forms. It explores the loneliness resulting from this broken bond and challenges us to acknowledge our personal and systemic responsibility.What peace can we make with privilege when the true cost of our comfort is not measured in dollars but in death? How can we reconcile with death when we impose the same hierarchical structures on it that we do in life? Is life worth living in the isolation of this self-imposed species loneliness?Humans often measure worth by accumulation—money, assets, objects—mistaking this for power and influence. Western heritage dictates a hierarchy, placing humans at the top, separate from the natural world. This delusion turns bodies into objects, land into property, and people into expend-able tools.If our value were instead determined by our contribution to the ecosystem, who could claim that a human is more valuable than a maggot? Maggots recycle death into life, breaking down matter and nourishing new growth. They transform into flies, pollinating plants and sustaining the Earth’s flora. In contrast, humans pollute rather than pollinate, with a select few profiting from exploita-tion at the expense of biodiversity and the well-being of many.In grappling with grief and loss on both personal and global scales, Margaret sought solace in the idea of rebirth through death, celebrating the beauty of regeneration through decay. However, she had to confront the stark reality of the disconnection from the earth under oppressive systems. Pharmakon is here imagining a path where the final act is to give back what was received from creation, offering our lives and deaths to sustain existence Artist Pharmakon Genre Electronica Label Sacred Bones Records Buying Options 1LP , 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Wither and Warp Methanol Doll Buyer’s Remorse Splendid Isolation Oiled Animals Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Pharmakon and more from Electronica View Product Quick View Pharmakon Contact – limited Coloured Vinyl Rock And Pop | Sacred Bones Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 31st March 2017 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pharmakon Contact – limited Coloured Vinyl £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sacred Bones Records SKU: SBR175LPC1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 31st March 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Pharmakon Contact Rock And Pop | Sacred Bones Records | 1LP Released 31st March 2017 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pharmakon Contact £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sacred Bones Records SKU: SBR175LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 31st March 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Shivers Shivers Electronica | Miasmah | 1LP Released 26th March 2021 £8.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Shivers Shivers £8.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Miasmah SKU: nn220852 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th March 2021 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Tourist Memory Morning Electronica | Monday Records | 1LP Released 7th June 2024 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tourist Memory Morning £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Monday Records SKU: TOU0023 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th June 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Via Tania Lightning & Thunder Electronica | Chocolate Industries | 12", Single Released 6th July 2021 £4.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Via Tania Lightning & Thunder £4.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Chocolate Industries SKU: nn226328 Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 6th July 2021 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Prodigy, The The Day Is My Enemy Electronica | Take Me To The Hospital | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 26th March 2015 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Prodigy, The The Day Is My Enemy £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Take Me To The Hospital SKU: HOSPLP005 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 26th March 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Orb, The Aubrey Mixes: The Ultraworld Excursions Electronica | Big Life | 1LP Released 18th June 2024 £30.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Orb, The Aubrey Mixes: The Ultraworld Excursions £30.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Big Life SKU: nn288914 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 18th June 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Underworld Beaucoup Fish Electronica | UMC | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 23rd August 2017 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Underworld Beaucoup Fish £24.00 Genre: Electronica Label: UMC SKU: UWR00073 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 23rd August 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Henry Green Half Light Electronica | Akira Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 3rd July 2020 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Henry Green Half Light £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Akira Records SKU: AKIRA007LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 3rd July 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Elderbrook Little Love Electronica | Mine Recordings | 1LP Released 19th May 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Elderbrook Little Love £25.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mine Recordings SKU: 5054197430350 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th May 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Telex Neurovision Electronica | Mute | 1LP Released 22nd September 2023 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Telex Neurovision £22.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: TELEX2 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Me Lost Me RPG Electronica | Upset The Rhythm | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 7th July 2023 £17.00 Select options Me Lost Me RPG £17.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Upset The Rhythm Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 7th July 2023 Read More Select options See more in Electronica Start again
