About

Holotropics is a global psychedelic punk band currently based in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The UK/Taiwan band blends psychedelia, punk, shoegaze, and world music, with lyrics in multiple languages.

Their prolific output evokes the contrast of the mystical experience: beautiful yet terrifying, reverent and absurd.

Holotropics latest full-length album, "Yuanfen," is a meditation on time, impermanence, mortality, and the disconnection between humanity and the natural world. They weave these timeless themes alongside modern concerns of technological anxiety, ecocide, and isolation, while retaining their distinctive approach to psychedelia.
