Tripsis is the sixth and final full-length studio album by the Australian progressive metal band Alchemist. Recorded in 2007, Adam Agius stated that the songwriting focused on a consistently heavy approach. [5] A promotional music video for the song "Wrapped in Guilt" was planned. [6] A music video for "Tongues and Knives" premiered on 8 October 2008. [7]
When asked on the meaning of the album, Agius remarked:
It has many meanings that's for sure. It depends on what dictionary you use, but its basically the action of a mortar and pestle, grinding massaging ingredients together, Its a good analogy of Alchemist music.
