Master storytellers of the past and present unite on a musically adventurous set of tracks.
The Montreal electro-pop duo have mentioned that the titular chrysalis of their third studio album refers to “the feeling of tranquility that comes with being indoors during a thunderstorm, privy to the drama while remaining somewhat removed and untouched.” This makes a lot of sense considering their sound.
