Chelsea Wolfe has announced her new album, She Reaches Out to She Reaches Out to She, arriving February 9th as the first release on her new label home Loma Vista. Wolfe also shared the video for the album’s second single, “Whispers in the Echo Chamber.”
The new song follows the same experimental post-metal path as the LP’s lead single, “Dusk,” but features a more tangible industrial stance. A pulsing electronic drum beats sets a sparse and methodical pace, as Wolfe’s voice shimmers and sways against the dark musical backdrop. According to a press release, the vocal effect was achieved by running her voice through producer David Andrew Sitek’s modular wall and was “meant to reflect those persistent intuitive voices that start rising up within you when it’s time to step out of the old and into the new.”
The elegant black-and-white video for “Whispers in the Echo Chamber” was directed by George Gallardo Kattah, and filmed in Colombia.
Remarked Wolfe on the clip: “This video feels like a love story between myself and my sleep paralysis entity, who, for the sake of this video, represents a calm inner voice cutting through mental chatter and anxiety to help guide me towards a more authentic path. From the inward to the outward, this entity shows me the expansiveness of new possibilities, if only I’ll take the first difficult steps.”
Regarding her Sitek-produced seventh studio album, Wolfe called it “an invitation to step into your authenticity.”
“It’s a record about the past self reaching out to the present self reaching out to the future self to summon change, growth, and guidance,” she said. “It’s a story of freeing yourself from situations and patterns that are holding you back in order to become self-empowered.”
