This week’s PBS Feature Album is PLASMATA, the sophomore record from four-piece funk-punk ensemble Proto Moro.
PLASMATA draws inspiration from Greek mythology, the stories of Medusa and Hephaestus serving as a statement to the environmental atrocities being committed by mining companies and big corporations on Indigenous Country today. The anxiety that comes with the destruction that capitalism has created embodies itself within the instruments and voices of Proto Moro, giving the record its explosive sound.
PLASMATA showcases the band's unique writing style and mastery of extended techniques on the instruments played by members Nikodimos, Gene Du Vergier, Jack Eden and Uno Lizard.
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from PLASMATA and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on vinyl, simply email your name and membership number to before midnight Sunday August 18. Please note vinyl giveaways must be picked up from the station in Collingwood.
