MY DISCO Reveal 'King Sound' Video

Announce European Tour

 

 

 

"Dark and claustrophobic, tense and minimal in the extreme--this is the LP MY DISCO have been building to for years" - Rolling Stone (AU)

 

"I doubt there will be a more effective, more moving, more genuinely, chillingly psychedelic record released this year." - The Quietus

 

Rock-A-Rolla's Top 10 Records of 2015

  

"I am combining my struggles with sleep with my collaboration between a band that was an armature for my early 20s. A frame made of wire sounds. MY DISCO would focus me and clarify my core with their rhythmic scaffold. For me they were an energy and a meditation, especially in their live shows. That immediacy of contact with the music, the band, that confrontation, is irreplaceable. But the music itself is abstraction, so I didn't want to capture it literally. I wanted to capture how it can't be captured - that mesmeric throb in our technology infused minds in the deep dark of night. 

     "I leave my head and return to the exterior world, which inevitable reflects the interior... I have the keys to a place on Ave A called Elvis Guesthouse. I lock myself inside... I fill the room with smoke and lights... I create the dark feeling of being in a club by myself. In fact I am in a darkened club by myself. Fogged and flickered with light. Sound so loud. I make something simple to catch that feeling I had those years ago, when MY DISCO held me like an image on a screen, like interference in my brain, and built their vibrations into my core." - Director, Johann Rashid

MY DISCO have always employed space as an instrument. Space between notes; space between instruments; even space between albums, as the Australian trio prepare to release Severe, their first full-length record in nearly five years. More than just a title, Severe pushes MY DISCO's subtle, intensely focused, minimalist sound to its most terrifying extreme. It is bleak, occasionally uncomfortable, and unpredictably profound. Severe is an album of aggravated tonal darkness and long breaths of disturbing silence, punctuated by pounding stabs and heavy, hypnotic rhythms. It is a minimalist approach to maximum sound, and by far the band's darkest, heaviest, and most consistent album of MY DISCO's burgeoning career.
