Take a look at the cover art for Plantoid’s debut album, the jazzy, prog-rock opus, ‘Terrapath’. In a desolate, misty landscape, a massive half-vegetable, half-machine structure resembling a spaceship looms above figures shrouded in shadow. It’s weird and eerie, but it also ignites a feeling of wonder and nostalgia, like cracking open your favourite sci-fi novel as a kid. It harkens back to 1970s rock artwork, where ornate fantasy scenes gaze back at you from dusty vinyl gatefolds – and yet it was created with the decidedly modern AI software Midjourney. In short, it’s the perfect visual for a band.

Emotion, whether it be through their music, lyrics, or performances, is a large part of Plantoid’s creative impetus. Think back to that little alien searching for meaning with his big green spaceship: through all the crazy solos, elastic basslines, acrobatic vocals and supermassive drum beats, ‘Terrapath’ is a story about finding yourself through the music you love.
