Tripsis is the sixth full-length studio album by the Australian progressive metal band, Alchemist. Recorded in 2007, Adam Agius stated that the songwriting focused on a consistently heavy approach.^[2] A promotional music video for the song "Wrapped in Guilt" is planned.^[3]

When asked on the meaning of the album, Agius remarked:

“	It has many meanings that's for sure. It depends on what dictionary you use, but its basically the action of a mortar and pestle, grinding massaging ingredients together, Its a good analogy of Alchemist music.	„
—Hail Metal's interview with Adam Agius[4]
