CHELSEA WOLFE
Hiss Spun
SARGENT HOUSE
The genre-straddling artist’s fifth full-length saw her dive further down the rabbit hole to deliver her darkest, most seductive and satisfying opus to date. Bolstered by appearances from members of QoTSA and Isis, Hiss Spun served as something of a soundtrack to Chelsea’s own struggles with personal demons and embraced her metal influences tighter than ever. hypnotic, haunting and often tooth-rattingly heavy, unforgettable goth-flecked tracks like
16 Psyche, The Culling and Offering were thrilling and chilling in equal measure.
