  • In 2010, Chelsea Wolfe recorded her first official album, The Grime and the Glow, with an old Tascam 8-track recorder by herself and with various friends in Northern California. The result, a combination of stripped-down instrumentation, layers of vocals, haunting melodies, and tape hiss, is an AM radio broadcast from the end of the world. In her second record, Apokalypsis, released in 2011, she expands her sound more decisively towards a rock idiom, backed by a full band in a suite of songs that evoke desolate landscapes, choppy seas, and widescreen horror films played in slow motion.
    Chelsea took some time with Swoon's Charles Mallison to talk about her records, inspirations, wearing the veil, dreams, and stand-up comedy, and to sing a couple of songs too.
    Chelsea Wolfe's latest record, Unknown Rooms, will be released on October 16, 2012.

    Kinda just sending a thought into the void w this comment but I feel almost anchored? in a way to her work, and the lens she looks through or perhaps the foci, rather, that she channels her emotions through.
    It’s so grounding and centering, yet at the same time lifts you off your soles and brings you into the slipstream dimension between dimensions where time stops and thought flourishes at one with heart & body in the most beautiful, undisturbed (peaceful) fashion conceivable

      Raffa Jaffa She connects to many different areas of music, so there are many, but none quite have the mood she does.
      If you want to go into more *Electronic areas: LA Vampires & Zola Jesus, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross, Radiohead, Robot Koch, and White Ring are good starting points.
      *Black Metal: Walknut, Wolves In the Throne Room, and Lunar Aurora are reverb-drenched and can get you in the same headspace as Wolfe.
      *Others: Snow Ghosts, Matt Elliot, Sunn O))), Russian Circles, Eivør, Agalloch, SubRosa, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and Deftones.

      Social anxiety will do that. I can definitely relate. I love that she goes on stage and performs. That takes courage, period, to put yourself out there like that. To do it when you have crippling anxiety, it seems almost insurmountable. She has alot of strength, and obviously loves playing her music enough to overcome her fears. You can definitely see it in her interviews, though. I find it endearing, personally.

      Amber Beaton Yeah, I can hear that, but I don't think it is someone's nose. It is a combination of her talking and shuffling around, because she is so neurotically shy. It does sound like a second mic is picking up crackling sounds. But it seems to sync with her body movements. And it is only like 2 seconds. I hope you watched the rest of it.

    • @sucktastic
      @sucktastic 10 років тому +17

      I think that's an important comment. Watch Siouxie or Smith in their prime and they are oddly, on certain tracks, happy. Chelsea reminds more of something like Chopin's nocturnes - eerie and melancholic and total in their seriousness. Each have their own beauty, of course. And I love Chelsea's music.

      Péter Király Ψυχή (pronounced pseche, the p not being silent) is how you'd spell the worl soul in modern Greek, if that's any helpful. I also know the word psyche has some kind of deep meaning related to character for psychology and philosophy. In modern greek we use the word ψυχοσυνθεση (psychosynthesis - the composition of the soul) instead, reffering to psyche.
