Plasma Chasms, the dynamic duo formed by Australian Jane Drewett and American Adrian Guerrero, have carved out a unique niche in the psych-rock landscape since their inception in 2020. Their blend of gritty, rhythmic indie-pop infused with a neo-vintage psychedelic twist quickly caught attention with their much loved self-titled debut EP in 2022. Now, they invite listeners on an expansive journey through a kaleidoscopic sonic universe in the form of the single ‘Already Waiting’ from their upcoming debut album ‘Chrysalis’.
‘Already Waiting’ stands out as a modern dream-pop gem. It transports listeners into a dreamy soundscape filled with luscious synths and soulful guitar tones, setting the stage for a tale of unrequited love. The song captures the bittersweet tension between the thrill of new love and the fear of vulnerability. Drewett’s vocals dance over hazy harmonies and smooth basslines, creating a lush, almost hypnotic atmosphere that pulls you into the story of a love that’s still waiting to be fully realised.
‘Already Waiting’ is a poignant exploration of the emotional push and pull that comes with the early stages of love—the desire to express your feelings clashing with the fear of ruining what you have. It’s a song about seizing the moment, even when fear holds you back, and the vulnerability that comes with letting your guard down.
Plasma Chasms have crafted an album that not only showcases their musical prowess but also their ability to create deeply resonant narratives within their songs. ‘Already Waiting’ is a bold step forward, that leaves you eager to see where this psychedelic duo will take you next. As they continue to explore and expand their sound, Drewett and Guerrero prove that they are a force to be reckoned with in the indie and psych-rock scenes and we are eagerly awaiting to hear their full-length LP.
