We caught up with California musician Chelsea Wolfe ahead of the release of her latest album, 'She Reaches Out To She Reaches Out To She.'
Imagine a continuum of women’s wisdom and evolution in which we nurture ourselves and the next generation, passing on the whispered secret truths of how we avoid danger and stay united—from the genesis of women carving drawings into rocks, through their howled protests of witches at the Salem stakes, to the present day when we continue to battle for agency over their bodies against church and state.
“The interesting thing about this album, and that song is that I wrote the songs and then, almost immediately after, I realized that I needed to actually live them,” Wolfe says. “The songs were demanding that of me, that you can’t just read the lyrics—you actually have to experience this so that, when you’re singing them, you know exactly what you’re singing about and you’re putting a lot more power into it.
The soundscape flirts with industrialism, languishing in machine-driven corrosion, droning synths and a sense of vast, open space. It’s equal parts Nine Inch Nails, gothic opera and chopped-up, sexy trip-hop beats. Longtime collaborators returned to the fold to manifest Chelsea Wolfe’s ideas: Drummer Jess Gowrie, guitarist Bryan Tulao and multi-instrumentalist Ben Chisholm worked with Wolfe remotely between 2020 until the end of 2021, brainstorming and writing with each other at a distance.
“He’s got a lot of great analog synthesizers, old and modern. And he’s got an entire wall of modular analog synths, which were really fun to play with. It was this big, robotic wall that you can run different sounds and vocals through, so that it comes out the other side sounding totally different and transformed,” she says. “It became really symbolic, actually.
