Given Martin Phillipps’ well-documented absence from the music scene for several decades (not including occasional live shows and the 2006 mini-album Stand By), it was an incredibly pleasant surprise when he reconvened a new version of The Chills in the early 2010s and they started gigging and making studio albums again.

Philosophical lyrics, earworms, and sonic creativity combine on the Chills' engaging new album 'Scatterbrain'. Thoughts of our eventual end permeate the album.
