Chrome largely abandoned conventional rock compositions, instead employing cut up and collage techniques and heavily processed sound to create a kind of sci-fi punk sound. They made use of tape loops, samples, noisescapes, synthesizers and strange guitar sounds.
Following Alien Soundtracks, John Lambdin left Chrome, and Gary Spain gradually played less of an active role in the band, leaving a core of Helios Creed and Damon Edge to explore their own experiments with new members. The Creed/Edge collaboration lead to a number of more albums, including Half Machine Lip Moves (making best album lists by Wire Magazine and Julian Cope), Read Only Memory, Red Exposure, Blood On the Moon, 3rd from the Sun and No Humans Allowed.
In 1983 Edge moved to Paris with his wife, where he formed a new lineup of Chrome, releasing a number of albums without Helios Creed, starting with Into the Eyes of the Zombie King, until Edge's death in 1995. Helios Creed formed a new version of Chrome with both new and previous members, shortly after Edge's passing. The Helios-lead Chrome releasing their first album, Retro Transmission, in 1997, and have never officially broken up. They also toured from 1997 to 2001. The last released Chrome album was 2002's Angel of the Clouds, which was pieced together from unused tapes featuring Damon Edge.
Both Damon Edge and Helios Creed have a number of solo, non-Chrome titled albums.

Heart Beat
Chrome Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
phantoms knowing heart beat
we see sanity
I know
what they expect from me
they're speaking of sanity
they're hearing society
they're screaming society
they're thinking humanity
I feel heartbeat
I feel sanity
I'm hearing heartbeat
I'm feeling a heartbeat
you're thinking sanity
you're hearing heartbeat
The song "Heart Beat" by Chrome seems to be delving into the idea of societal expectations and the pressure that comes with them. The opening lines, "I see heartbeat / phantoms knowing heart beat / we see sanity / I know," suggest a sense of disillusionment in the face of these societal expectations. The use of "phantoms" also implies a sense of emptiness or lack of substance in these expectations.
As the song continues, the lyrics touch upon the idea of "sanity" and how it is defined by society. The lines "they're speaking of sanity / they're hearing society" suggest that sanity is a construct that is defined by external forces, rather than being an individual experience. The repetition of "heartbeat" and "I know what they expect from me" emphasizes the pressure to conform to these societal norms.
The last stanza of the song seems to suggest a turning point or realization. The use of "I feel" and "I'm hearing" suggest a newfound sense of individuality and self-awareness, rather than simply reacting to external pressures. The line "you're thinking sanity / you're hearing heartbeat" suggests that while others may adhere to societal expectations, the singer is now prioritizing their own personal experience and perspective.
Overall, "Heart Beat" touches upon themes of conformity, self-awareness, and societal expectations. The use of repetitive phrases and the alternating focus on external versus internal experiences creates a sense of tension and unease throughout the song.

Still scheming on my dreams
Been rappin from a teen
It’s all cap when they speak
Pure facts from my speech
I ain’t no preacher
Still things I can teach
Been a long climb
And I’m feeling to breach
I got a wave next stage need a boat by the beach
Real love what a young brudda need
Probably only get it when I achieve
But then it ain’t real love
Oh well life’s tough
Why I double up my cup
Times in my life been fucked
Pain in to drive switch gear on the clutch
All this weed in my system
Woulda thought manna Dutch
Dam ain’t in my plan
Go Bahamas catch a tan
I led the way while they ran
Life’s short don’t fall on a plan
Stay healthy and increase that
Spam
For now I’m going ham

Ik man that work a job on a minimum wage but they still have a smile on there face
Ik man that are rich but there sad for days
It don't make sense to me
Yh I have issues
I wish the best for u
But do u wish the best for me
I can only vent to me
I don't trust red hearts when they sent to me
We've all seen romeo and Juliet and uno how it ends
U start of as freinds
Then into lovers
When she's gone u say to urself u ain't ever gonna find someone like her
Quit finding love cah ur gonna get broken like another time
Ur too busy finding love
When ur own mum brought u up
That's the truth and it's tough
U ain't ever seen ur bro smoking a ciggy when he's cuffs
I still wonder what was running through his mind
For my family imma make it for ma bros imma make it
Keep ur eyes to urself
Dw what I'm making
Cah Asoon as u see u phone me and u move on some fake shit
Smile on my face even though I hate it
I can't wait to tell mummzy that I've made it
Don't tell them bout ur next move that's all I'm saying
Sully once said if ur not the monster ur the food
I agree wid dat and I think it's true
I was rude to her cah I wasn't in the mood
If I could've I would've
But I never apologised
For my own actions
Cah ill rather live with the truth so I can take it out in the booth
I'm talking to somebody about life
And they said to me some man live a good life but fake it
To everyone who has a bad life
You've been through it and I rate it
@user-dy5vg8ou7x

@LLOMBA_VR_EST
In un mondo di emozioni che sono sempre più finte
Ci attacchiamo a certe cose che sono mai esistite
Ma l’importante rimane fare più like delle tue amiche
Nessuno ti può capire ma l’algoritmo capisce
In un mondo sempre grigio serve un po’ di colore
Lei Non parla con suo padre ma è nuda sulle storie
Putroppo non cura nulla il mio sbalzo d’umore
Ero incollato allo schermo cercando guarigione
Risposte alle storie like like
Chiamate per ore
Ma adesso che sono offline
Dovè il finito il tuo amore
La sto chiamando dalla Lyca
Non le uscirà il mio nome
Ti sto bloccando ma lo sai
Ti scrivo se non c’è sole
Le persone sono sole senza la connessione
Il Notiziario dei per te parte con la colazione
Scrolla e riscrolla ancora vuoi qualcosa di migliore
Ma non te sei a decidere e lui che ti propone

Perkies in me lichaam
Je ziet de jongen dichtslaan.
Komen uit het donker dus we willen in de licht staan. Het ligt aan. Jaren zonder love. Daarom dat de jongens op wit gaan. Pekkies gaan verkopen. Met rode ogen. Ik was gebroken.
Ik vraag me af waarom hebben ze tegen mij gelogen. Waarom geef ik love. Aan het einde worden we toch bedrogen. Wie kan ik nog geloven. Alleen jerra aan me side. Ik hou me ogen open. Ik zweer het dit word mijn tijd. Je moet mij geloven. Ik kom van zoveel pijn. Ik kan niet blijven hopen. Is er iemand die me red. Zit met mezellef gevecht. Ik heb stress. Flashbacks beelden in me hoofd. Die blijven moven. Kan niet weg.
Van die drukte. Me gedachtes blijven hangen in me head. Deze libbie is eng.
Ik blijf grinden tot tevreden ben.
True story. Je hoort het aan me stem.
Ik zoek money. Ik wil een brede stack.
Ik verdwijn met jerra en ik kom nooit meer back.
Naar die tijd van stress.
Ik het altijd puur. Dat zijn wij gewend.
Want die tijd was zuur. Maar ik hield mij recht.
Niemand kan me zeggen ik ben slecht.
Ik kan niet begrijpen. Dat mannen switchen.
Voor mooie meisjes. Terwijl ik grind. Aan het denken. Van ga ik alleen blijven. Want ik hoef niet te wifen. Als ze gaat toch verdwijnen.
Ik doe dit alles voor mama.
Beloofte ik ga schijnen.
Ik kan niet terug meer in de modder.
Ik moet blauw vermijden.
