Chelsea Wolfe – releases her new album ‘The Dark’ + new single and video “Seethe”

Acclaimed musician, songwriter, and multidisciplinary artist Chelsea Wolfe today releases her acclaimed 9th studio album ‘The Dark’ via Loma Vista Recordings. CD and vinyl editions will follow on September 18th – pre-order here. The album release is accompanied by the thundering new single and video “Seethe”. Following a spellbinding, intimate, sold out show at London’s The Dome on Tuesday and last night’s headline set at ArcTangent Festival, Wolfe also today announces her largest London headline show to date for December 17th at the O2 Forum Kentish Town. Tickets are on presale now, with general release at 10am on Monday 24th – tickets available for London and the North American + European tours from chelseawolfe.com.

“The Dark” is an album imbued with mystery, symbolism, and solace. Drawing inspiration from the idea of entering the woods at the darkest point and becoming the thing you fear in order to feel more brave, Wolfe began writing with cowriter Jennifer Decilveo alongside long term collaborator Ben Chisholm, intentionally stripping away the sonic layers to give deserved space to what would become the finest songwriting of her storied career.

Featuring Robin Finck (Nine Inch Nails), Matt Chamberlain (Pearl Jam), Troy Van Leeuwen (Queens Of The Stone Age), Stella Mozgawa (Warpaint), and Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Nine Inch Nails, St Vincent), the album’s 10 tracks see Wolfe at the height of her powers, her voice buoyed by a newfound confidence. Each exquisite track feels like its own invocation – a calling down of forces, primordial, bone-shaking, self-altering.

Earlier this summer Wolfe reemerged from her cocoon with a flurry of announcements – as the face of a line of five bespoke perfumes by Heretic named ‘GHOSTS’, the double a-side single “The Dark / Death Is Not The End”, and a tour announcement.
