Chimera by Peppercat
Chimera is the first thing I've made in a long time that I love from start to finish. Jena drew the chimera on the cover in like 2 minutes. Everything was done in a crappy apartment with an analog drum machine, a few guitars, a cheap keyboard, an 80's digital guitar (that got a lot more use than I expected), an ocarina, some various percussion, and random sound making things like a bell and some cards and a tape deck etc.
also my cat meows somewhere hidden on the album. Try to spot it!
Themes:
Being Transgender
Being bored of music and coming out of it
Questions that bother me
Opinions that bother me
the surreal feeling of not being able to tell what I dreamed and what I actually experienced
Yugioh cards
Japanese dollar stores
The fantasy of being the only human left alive and just living by the sea
Chimera is the second album in the trilogy loosely based on the Divine Comedy: Purgatorio
