The title of Grian Chatten’s debut solo album, "Chaos For the Fly," borrows from the quote “What is normal to the spider is chaos for the fly,” attributed to Charles Addams, the titular creator of The Addams Family. It refers to the different modalities of reality we all exist in, implying there’s no such thing as a “normal” that suits everyone, in fact, one group’s normal is often another’s disaster.
Fontaines D.C. frontman Grian Chatten explores “exaggerated aspects of his soul” far from the clamor and clanging of his fastidious band on his solo effort, Chaos For the Fly.
