After sharing tracks like “Carrion Flowers,” “Iron Moon,” “After the Fall” and “Grey Days,”
Chelsea Wolfe is excited to share her full album,
Abyss, with fans a week ahead of its official release.
Abyss can now be heard in full via
NPR First Listen, who write, “
gorgeously devastating . . . heartbreak and darkness are the threads that run through Wolfe’s diverse-yet-distinctive discography. They’re never far behind her. If anything, Abyss chases them, with a tenderness that understands the beauty to be captured therein.”
Her fifth full length album, Abyss explores themes of sleep paralysis, the unconscious and subconscious, failure, distortion, destruction, intimacy, anxiety, longing and much more. On Abyss, Wolfe continued her ongoing collaboration with multi-instrumentalist and co-writer Ben Chisholm and drummer Dylan Fujioka, with Ezra Buchla brought on board to play viola and Mike Sullivan (Russian Circles) enlisted to contribute guitar. The ensemble traveled to Dallas, TX to record with producer John Congleton (Swans, St. Vincent,) with results that tremble with a visceral intensity.
It is also with great pleasure to announce Chelsea Wolfe’s European headline tour that will take place this autumn, with support coming from new Sargent House label signees,
A Dead Forest Index. This month long tour across Europe begins October 30th in Cologne, DE before ending with a series of UK dates at the end of November.
