Chief Opossum w. Plumstar
Chief Opossum’s debut album Headlong Into Collapse is a crossroads of country, hard rock, and shoegaze. With raw lyrics and a sound that sways between gritty power and dreamy introspection, the album explores themes of tension, decay, isolation, and redemption. Building on the genre-agnostic foundation of 2024’s Northerner EP, Headlong Into Collapse paints a sonic landscape that is both familiar and foreign. Plumstar is an unadulterated contemporary group.
