Chrome Zero Releases “butterfly_effect” for Industrial Nostalgia

Chrome Zero, the Houston based duo of Tony Bautista (bass) and Matt Salinas (drums), have been making waves in the industrial rock scene with their dreamy, synthetic, and deeply emotional sound. Their song "butterfly_effect" from the EP Artificial Luv is a wonderful example of longing and reflection wrapped in a synth pulse and lyrics that settle into your mind for deep contemplation.

Chrome Zero draws musical inspiration from more well-known names, including Deftones, Team Sleep, and Nine Inch Nails, creating a world that feels both futuristic and nostalgic all at once. “butterfly_effect” begins with airy bass lines and digital sounds paired down to nudges and sprays in an expansive sound world construction. This construction swells into the sound of wistful vocals with a sincerity behind the line "Baby, I get lost in your eyes.” As the piece continues, the background vocals, true to the nostalgic sound of Chrome Zero, enrich the emotive feeling of warmth, creating a lovely tension with the passive just-underneath industrial sounds.

The making of "butterfly_effect" is detail-oriented, combining genuine reactions with clean electronic aspects. Chrome Zero's unmistakable ability to generate compelling auditory space makes this an interesting listen if you're into reflective, atmosphere-based rock music. 

Chrome Zero contextualizes their sounds in a way that combines rock, industrial, and electronic elements in a very distinguishable fashion, paving the way to an EP that's worth the experience of Artificial Luv.
