Australian-US duo Plasma Chasms make their grand debut with Chrysalis, a 13-track exploration of love, vulnerability, and transformation.
Australian-US duo Plasma Chasms are making waves with their debut album, Chrysalis, a bold and trippy exploration of love, connection, and the human experience. Out now, this 13-track cosmic odyssey blends Aussie indie charm with Southern Californian vibes, taking listeners on an interstellar journey through a kaleidoscope of psychedelic soundscapes.
The album’s lead single, ‘Already Waiting’, sets the tone with its raw portrayal of unspoken love and emotional vulnerability. The track is a haunting reflection on those moments when our hearts race and our tongues freeze, caught between the desire to connect and the fear of loss. “We spend all this time dreaming of these moments and then they catch us unprepared,” the duo confides. It’s a powerful exploration of the tension between wanting to take a leap and the paralysing fear that holds us back.
Chrysalis is a full-on concept experience. Imagine being whisked through an intergalactic space elevator, navigating the vastness of human emotion with a cosmic guide. The album delves into themes of love, loss, and transformation, reflecting its title’s nod to the transformative stage between caterpillar and butterfly.
Since their 2020 inception, Plasma Chasms have been steadily building a name for themselves with their unique sound. Their debut EP in 2022 showcased a knack for blending classic indie-pop with psych-rock influences, setting the stage for Chrysalis. Now, with their debut album, Plasma Chasms are ready to push indie music into new realms. Buckle up and get ready for a journey through their vibrant, boundary-pushing universe.
