IRM

*2026 stock. 200 copies limited edition* IRM presents An Act Of Self Mutilation Is An Act Of Freedom, a work that transforms inner conflict, physical intensity, and emotional extremity into a radical statement of liberation. Released through Phage Tapes, the album inhabits the unstable space between violence and vulnerability, collapse and renewal, destruction and release.

Rather than offering easy catharsis, IRM confronts the listener with an uncompromising sonic language—raw, abrasive, and deeply human. An Act Of Self Mutilation Is An Act Of Freedom moves through states of tension, alienation, obsession, and surrender, turning pain into a form of resistance and self-erasure into a disturbing search for autonomy.

The album’s title functions both as provocation and manifesto. It suggests a body and a mind attempting to break free from imposed identities, social expectations, and the boundaries of the self. In IRM’s world, freedom is not presented as comfort or escape, but as a dangerous act: a rupture, a wound, and a refusal to remain intact.
