Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as the second installment of her 'Engine of Hell' series, the American songwriter journeys to rural Wales to capture a highly improvisational, heavily atmospheric set of recordings. The album completely abandons traditional song structures, prioritizing surreal vocalizations and stark, acoustic avant-folk textures.
