Chelsea Wolfe's seventh album, reissued in lavender eco vinyl, LP in gatefold sleeve with 12-page text booklet & DLC! Chelsea Wolfe has always exuded a powerful energy, and while she has demonstrated the ability to channel that somber beauty into a variety of forms, her talent as a songwriter is never more evident than when she strips her songs down to a few key components. The result is that her solemn majesty and menacing elegance is stronger than ever on Birth of Violence.There is a core element in Chelsea Wolfe's music - a kind of urgent spin on the American desolation blues - that has run throughout her career. At the heart of it all has always been Wolfe's wistful yearning and beguiling earnestness, even as the framework for the compositions has constantly evolved as resources became available. Her sober beginnings were gradually complemented by electronics and filled out with full-band arrangements. The music became increasingly dense and more focused on live performance. Their album, Birth of Violence, is a return to the solitary nature of their earlier recordings.
