ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF

rumbling in the satanic dark, anna lurks with an antiquated organ & grungy guitars at her back – this is an intense, epic record that stole our hearts, & probably plans to do something unmentionable with them.

her 4^th album confirms her formidable reputation as the creator of a singular world, equal parts black magic & beauty. Its 5 solemn, yet thrilling, tracks extend over 47 uncompromising minutes filled with tension, grace & sorcery. With the stately sound of Copenhagen’s Marmorkirken church organ as its centrepiece, ‘Dead Magic’ calls upon an unlikely array of influences & inspirations, including Yma Sumac, Sunn O))), Gyorgi Ligeti, Swans & Nils Frahm & will also appeal to fans of Cocteau twins, early pj harvey, diamanda galas, & chelsea wolfe. “all told ‘dead magic’ is hausswolff’s finest work to date; a record of remarkable potency & intent” 4/5 – mojo.
