Chroma Dreamcoat is the second and presumed final studio album by American post-hardcore band Of Machines. On January 9, the band released a statement asking fans, "If we recorded an EP, who would want it?". When an outpouring of emotional and excited comments ensued on their status, they replied "back with the original line-up" (with the exception of Austin), when many people asked who would be in the band. After many days of silence, they later released a YouTube video explaining that Of Machines have reunited. The group also created a Tumblr Blog and requesting donations for the creation of an EP titled Chroma Dreamcoat".[1] Its scheduled release has yet to be disclosed, though they declared via their Facebook on February 12, that the band officially announced they had started writing new music for "Chroma Dreamcoat".
Musical and lyrical themes
The title of the album, according to singer Dylan Anderson, derives from and is loosely based on the Munsell Color System, which specifies colors based on three color dimensions: hue, value (lightness), and chroma (color purity). Depicting 'Chroma' and applying it as an anthropological form, or describing how people become less pure due to being subjected to their surroundings. The term 'Dreamcoat' refers to the fictional character or protagonist’s attire, as it slowly blemishes and deteriorates in color throughout the record. He stated in his interview, “Imagine having said dreamcoat and within your journey, experiences, etc…you are faced with your adolescence, your youth, and your adulthood. As you slowly accept everything around you and how powerless you truly are to it all, you can fully reach a sense of absolution.” He continues, “I guess you can sum it up to becoming completely apathetic and finding complete vindication within yourself.” He stated that it will cover themes of human suffering/ailments, alienation, existentialism, and isolation/deterioration. “It will definitely be much more of a darker vibe than the previous album and, in a way, more human than machine,” he noted.
