Another reminder to question everything and trust your own inner compass when navigating the path of truth.“ About the album : “Our upcoming album, titled “Helichrysum,“ delves deep into the human experience, exploring the wounds we carry and the transformative power that lies within us. It serves as a culmination of the countless creative and personal choices we have made, leading us to a place of greater harmony within ourselves, with each other, and with our collective intentions. Musically speaking, the new album is a testament to our commitment to delivering a sonic experience that is unapologetically raw, adventurous, heavy, groovy and psychedelic. The choice to name the album after the Helichrysum plant, holds a significance as the plant symbolizes endurance, healing, immortality, and the power to overcome adversity, which mirror many of the themes throughout the record.“ Credits: Laura Phillips ~ Vocals / Bass Eddie Brnabic ~ Guitars Harry Silvers ~ Drums Written, performed and arranged by Hippie Death Cult.
