About

VIOLENCE (sometimes stylized VILENCE, V†LENCE, or V†L£://CE)

VIOLENCE began as an art-house project by Olin "Palmtrees Caprisun" Caprison in 2010. After various releases on a number of net-labels, as well as being featured on several physical compilations, such as Blasting Voice, a compilation curated by Ashland Mines for Teenage Teardrops, VIOLENCE’s first physical release, REPTILE/Hand-Me-Downs From Heaven, a two-part EP, was released by Steak au Zoo Records in 2012. A subsequent European tour followed in the summer of that year. Since then, VIOLENCE has focused on performing throughout the United States, releasing several EPs on their own. In 2015 their EP, The Embrace of Enkidu and Gilgamesh, was released with DogFood Music Group.

A multi-instrumentalist, Olin Caprison composes, produces, and performs for all of VIOLENCE's output. Their compositions are known for their complexity, shifting between and combining multiple styles of music in single songs. This complexity comes from a desire to dissect these styles of music in search of a syncretic narrative of human sound. Lyrical themes resonate from earlier experiences growing up in Baltimore, MD, to meditations on life from primary viewpoints of the intersections between various cultures.
