There's something about "drone-metal-art-folk" songstress Chelsea Wolfe that is impossibly alluring to us. She's like the girl who walks into a room and everything turns to slow motion, but instead of slow motion, a sack is thrown over your head and you taste nothing but blood and leather for like a week.
Wolfe has just announced an upcoming tour in support of her latest release (and one of our most haunting albums of the year), Unknown Rooms: A Collection of Acoustic Songs. Supported by Americana psych crooner King Dude, the tour will feature Wolfe joined onstage by a backing string section and is sure to be exactly what you need to pull yourself out of your crippling seasonal depression. That, or it'll send you even further into your deep, dark downward spiral. Either way, you'll feel feels.
