It's almost time for Bloodmoon: I
Converge - Bloodmoon: I

Converge went big on their upcoming new album, Bloodmoon: I

Considered a collaborative piece, it features the 4-person Converge lineup, but also Chelsea Wolfe, bandmate and writing partner Ben Chisholm, plus Stephen Brodsky (Cave In).Like many collaborations in recent years, the original story goes back to Roadburn festival (2016), where this lineup performed revised Converge songs under the title of Blood Moon. It spawned the bigger idea, but scheduled delayed writing until 2019, followed by recording remotely  in 2020. Listen to the title track here.

The album is available on cd and digital platforms on Nov. 19 (Epitaph) with vinyl coming next June 24 (Deathwish).

Beautiful Ruin
Epitaph\Deathwish Inc (2018)

Converge—Nietzsche’s pissed off nephew, Rilke’s furious friend—achieves a glimmering consummation in a mishmash of fourness (which, in numerology, symbolizes spiritual wholeness). They went from thrash titans to sonic gods; now they flirt with the nasty nebula they came from, dumping what we might consider B-sides, smacking a healthy appetite, and a bitter jaded cheek, awake. Seemingly, they can do no … Read more

Hiss Spun
Sargent House (2017)

Darkness isn’t something everybody can access within themselves. Some are afraid to explore those shadowy recesses, some deny they exist, and some embrace it and find a cathartic release through some outlet of their choosing.Luckily for us, Chelsea Wolfe would appear to be in the latter category. To describe her music by any particular genre would only seem dismissive. Tawdry, … Read more
