In sound, it appears fairly streamlined and straightforward. It’s only when one begins peeling back the layers of the onion on paper that the true majesty reveals itself.

Beautiful album, very nicely crafted, pleasantly atmospheric, and impressively performed.

Wait a second.. this isn’t metal?

Who cares, this album is amazing. An Atmospheric and ethereal musical Experience, with Chelsea’s voice guiding us through what certaintly would be considered a musical acid trip. Beautiful.

I'd say this is actually the most metal - leaning release Chelsea's done in a while

Have you heard the Scratch? They’re new album is also more metal than anything they have done, but that doesn’t make it a metal album, it’s still folk rock 😊anyway, that wasn’t the point. As I said, it doesn’t matter. The music is atmospheric, Dark and hauntingly beautiful. I really dig it, got a lot of trip hop and electronica vibes, and it was definately a Nice surprise, and I can’t Wait to see her perform this summer 🔥🔥

I don't think it's more metal than Bloodmoon or Self-Surgery.

Yeah. Personally, I really loathe the title. It’s way too pretentious. I can understand what she was trying to do with the way the title is written on the cover being all in circles. But the execution is terrible. Just name it ”She reaches out” and leave it at that.

Sheesh, color me easily pleased or perhaps just not easily bothered, but I’ve no problem with it whatsoever. It struck me upon first glance as a simple, albeit perhaps reductionist comment on the cyclical nature of the human experience and reality itself.

But I’d say that’s more my own musings than anything, because I’m not in the habit of authoritatively stating which artists are and aren’t posturing with their ideas when they present their work

Pfff c'mon Sahar, you make it sound as if I'm an asshole who dunks on artists on a daily basis. Which we both know isn't true.
I'll level with you: I did use an overly harsh tone (blame it on latino passion if you want to). But I stand by the content in general. The idea on itself is interesting (and I do like how it is visually portrayed in the artwork) but it really doesn't translate well in practice when the title is put out on print, like on this site. It surely won't affect how I view the music nor the lyrics.

I'd say she was trying to reach for the backspace on her keyboard. But it was obviously too far away.

Yeah, yeah I'll see myself out.

A return to form. Best she has sounded since 2017's Hiss Spun.

Indeed
to me Chelease's music should sound spooky and empty. Very prominent and fast drumming just kills that vibe.

I see, well there's plenty of spooky/empty sounds on the record, so I think it gives the album some nice variety. Also I just thought the song was executed well.

This is dark and mysterious, very brooding and haunting. Just pack your favourite beverage and gently sway to the music.
