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 View Product Quick View Gabe Gurnsey Physical Electronica | Phantasy Sound | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 3rd August 2018 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gabe Gurnsey Physical £21.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Phantasy Sound SKU: PHLP10 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 3rd August 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lionel Loueke HH Reimagined Electronica | Edition Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th January 2023 £19.00 Select options Lionel Loueke HH Reimagined £19.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Edition Records Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th January 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View MJ Cole MJ Cole Presents Madrugada Electronica | Decca | 1LP Released 19th June 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders MJ Cole MJ Cole Presents Madrugada £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Decca SKU: 851749 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th June 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Quadrophonia Cozmic Jam Electronica | ARS Productions | 1LP Released 30th July 2023 £10.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Quadrophonia Cozmic Jam £10.00 Genre: Electronica Label: ARS Productions SKU: nn268316 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th July 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Agoria La 11éme Marche Electronica | Different Recordings | 12", Single Released 22nd September 2023 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Agoria La 11éme Marche £13.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Different Recordings SKU: PIASF076 Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith Ears Electronica | Western Vinyl | 1LP Released 1st December 2023 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith Ears £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Western Vinyl SKU: WV145LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 1st December 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bonobo Migration Electronica | Ninja Tune | 2LP Released 13th January 2017 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bonobo Migration £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Ninja Tune SKU: ZEN236 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 13th January 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nala Sinephro Endlessness Electronica | Warp | 2LP, Etched Released 6th September 2024 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nala Sinephro Endlessness £27.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Warp SKU: WARPLP358 Formats: 2LP, Etched Released Date: 6th September 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Boards Of Canada Twoism Electronica | Warp | 1LP Released 18th November 2013 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Boards Of Canada Twoism £18.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Warp SKU: WARPLP70R Formats: 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Benjamin Vial Grand Angle Electronica | Death Proof Records | 1LP Released 2nd October 2015 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Benjamin Vial Grand Angle £15.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Death Proof Records SKU: DPRLP001 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 2nd October 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Electronica Start again
