Self-Surgery

Mrs. Piss is een nieuwe samenwerking tussen Chelsea Wolfe en Jess Gowrie. Op basis van de rock, metal en industriële invloeden van beide artiesten, begon dit project al in 2017 toen de twee samen aan het touren waren tijdens Wolfe's Hiss Spun-album. Het resultaat is hun debuutalbum Self-Surgery, dat werd opgenomen in The Dock Studio in Sacramento, CA en in Wolfe's thuisstudio, The Canyon. Chelsea Wolfe op zang / gitaar en Jess Gowrie op drums, gitaar, bas, programmering. Deze nummers voelen urgenter en raken harder, dan alles wat ze ooit hebben gemaakt: heftigheid, met een punk spirit. “It was freeing and fun to channel some wild energies that I don’t typically put into my own music. We tried not to overthink the songs as we were writing them, but at the same time we did consciously put a lot into crafting them into our own weird sonic vision. This project was a chance for us to do things our own way, on our own terms, and we plan to invite more womxn musicians along for future Mrs. Piss recordings.” – CW “Both of us have grown so much as writers and musicians since our first band together (Red Host), and with the journeys we had to take separately to get there, we both have so much more to say; so much more pain and anger to express. That said, we also had a lot of fun doing it, not to mention how freeing it is to not give a f-k and to just create.” – JG - “Doomy chugs, ethereal vocals and massive distortion sounds are the order of the day, summoning the menacing timbres that fueled Wolfe’s Abyss and Hiss Spun records" GUITAR WORLD - "a grungy, sludgy new project that defies expectations" REVOLVER - "Together, they make a grandly grungy noise — something bigger and more anthemic than what we’re used to hearing from Wolfe" STEREOGUM - "thundering tracks that sound as if they had diliberately set about to destroy a roomful of amplifiers" BLACKBOOK
