Interview with Chelsea Wolfe // Guitar World

(Feature via Guitar World)

The doom-folk mage reveals why she took an acoustic turn for new album Birth Of Violence - without ditching the pedals

“I’m always exploring contrasts,” says Chelsea Wolfe, talking to Guitar World about new album Birth Of Violence

Her sixth full-length marks a departure from all the crackling electric guitar distortion of its predecessor, instead pursuing the warmer realms of atmospheric acoustics, building simple folk ideas into a magnificent oceanic reverie. And yet it still feels every bit as dark and unsettling as the music she’s become famous for… 

“There’s a constant dichotomy within me,” muses Chelsea, when asked how she balances the aforementioned contrasts.
