Chelsea Wolfe on how witchcraft, sobriety informed her latest album | AP interview

Ойын-сауық

Often in popular culture, witchcraft is associated with a kind of feminist reclamation of power and spite-fueled revenge. And although Chelsea Wolfe’s latest album is dripping with poetic lyricism about tarot, underworlds and bathing in blood - and is arguably her most spiritual yet - she says the process of making it has been a time of healing, joy and relinquishing control. “She Reaches Out To She Reaches Out To She” is out Friday. Wolfe also is collaborating with composer Tyler Bates and director Ti West on the trilogy that started with 2022's “X.”

    I love Chelsea so much ❤ and absolutely enjoyed her collabs. I am always amazed how differently she sounds in each of them, and I am catching myself asking - am I listening to the same artist with each new record. And I am happy to find out that she is sober and healing - it gives me hope that one more of truly legendary artists won't die of the addiction way too soon. And this encourages to stay sober as well.

    I resonate so much with her on so many levels. This interview was brilliant and I love her talking about how people criticize artists for “selling out” or being “corporate” as long as the goals align and everyone is on the same page there’s nothing wrong with putting art in commercials or other things, it really just comes down to the intention. So I don’t get the automatic aversion people have to that. Glad she talked about this cause I feel it’s pretty unfair when a lot of artists have even struggled to get the privilege they have, they have every right to collaborate with people they feel align with their personal beliefs and goals. That’s definitely not being “corporate” or “selling out” as far as I’m concerned. Also from the perspective as a listener of her art. The only reason I buy her merch is because I know she collaborates with people who help with afforestation projects and other positive goals, as a fan of her I’m not just buying her stuff to “own” it. I truly want to support her, and help the world in whatever small way I can. She is one of the few artists out there where I feel comfortable buying things from them cause I know her heart is pure. I don’t even know her on a personal level, her honesty bleeds through everything her and her fellow collaborators do, I love her and them all so so much. My gratitude for this new album and everything they have created goes beyond words of expression, and my loyalty will echo beyond this life and into the next. ❤🫶🏼😌

    Why is it that just about any time a mainstream media outlet gives Chelsea any coverage, there are so many idiotic comments from people who don't like and clearly don't understand her? After seeing her live three times, meeting briefly her after a show and following pretty much everything she has done from "Pain Is Beauty" on, I think you have to be living a pretty sad existence to feel the need to make comments like these about an artist like her.

    I wish she would reveal some more then just what she says in every interview. It allways sounds like some script she learned early on and is kinda repeating. I would love to hear an interview that goes a bit deeper, where she even feels comfortable enough to talk free. Maybe one with Ben involved would be great. Not that she didn't open up over the time a bit. Anyhow it's a nice interview. And she s one of my favorite.

    She’s done some podcasts recently, one for Pam Grossmans Witchwave podcast and she did another one just recently that I haven’t listened to yet. That’s probably more in depth than these type of interviews. Theres no script, but similar questions will be asked it’s just inevitable. She’s done so many interviews that it’s kind of unfair, she’s just answering the questions she’s being given. It’s not her fault that similar questions keep getting asked, and I personally don’t have a problem with it. Not everyone dives into *every* interview. So the repetition isn’t a script, it’s moreso that people who don’t know anything about her can kind of get a quick rundown of what she stands for and who she is as a person.

    Ms. Wolfe is a deep and complex artist whose work is transrational and intuitive. An interviewer who is as advanced in their own art would be capable of translating some of what she’s about. A regular press interviewer doesn’t have the vocabulary to broach any of this.
