Not to my knowledge, no.
They were supposed to tour Australia and NZ together last year. Hopefully a sign of more things to come.

She's on the new Xiu Xiu as well (along with Haley Fohr, Liz Harris, Owen Pallet, Alice Bag).
Chelsea Wolfe helps Stewart turn The Cure’s “One Hundred Years,” a favorite of his since high school, into pulsating industrial music that radiates intensity.

I am 100% here for Chelsea Wolfe and Emma Ruth Rundle
not so much for Chelsea Wolfe and Xiu Xiu

Same. I don't get Xiu Xiu at all.

Thirding that.

Love her covers, and this one is no exception:

the stuff from the new album giving me flashbacks to Lamb and Curve! in a good way. maybe i'm due for a 21st century trip hop phase. she really is perfect for someone who needs a more goth lana del rey in their life.
the ebm vibe is strong on the new stuff too. you could remix it all really well.

Thanks for this. I'd no idea she had a new album out.

Not actually out for a few more weeks, (Feb 9, iirc), but definitely looking forward to it.

My LP hasn't arrived yet and I might wait for it to come to listen for the first time rather than stream it, but has anyone heard it yet?

its of a piece with the tracks that have come out already. dark. clanking. beats. moody. industrial.
― scott seward, Friday, 9 February 2024 19:04 (three months ago) link
I gave in and put it on, its sounding really great. Pretty much the album I was hoping for (and thankfully sounds nothing like Lamb - which had me worried)

sorry, i didn't mean to scare you. it was just reminding me of that era in some ways. i am actually not a Lamb expert. but i think they got doomy on occasion.

I think the fact you said it had that kinda doomy industrial meets curve vibe was enough to make me think nah it wont be like Lamb. Lamb were one of my pet hates along with Moloko that put me off the whole trip-hop thing back in the day.
It seems like a natural follow up/progression to her more doom records of a few years ago.

Goddamn, this is so good. This might be my favorite album of hers yet.
