Hiss Spun

Description

"When musicians have that intensity within them, they often start earlier and stay in place. Ms. Wolfe seems to use it by choice, not by disposition; she can use different types of darkness as color or dye." - NY Times // "The reigning dark priestess of gothic-tinged art rock." Rolling Stone // Hiss Spun is Chelsea Wolfe's sixth album. Following her acclaimed album Abyss in 2015, Hiss Spun is both dynamic, heavy, and raw. NPR shared the song "16 Psyche," stating: "Wolfe has always possessed a talent for writing dynamic songs, particularly when it comes to the theater of the soul. But the masterful '16 Psyche' is a full-blown ballad, finding her at her peak and zenith to date." Recorded by Kurt Ballou (Converge), the album was conceived as an emotional purge, a way to confront the tumult of the outside world by exploring the complexities of her inner turmoil.
