No sooner had we digested all the dark matter on Chelsea Wolfe’s debut album “Apokalypsis” than the L.A. songstress unveils a new song. “Sunstorm” is a chilling, minimalist missive about death and its emotional entrails – no massive wall of sound here, just a repeating synth line and call-and-response vocals. The song doesn’t need much more, but Sean Stout’s beautifully despairing video give Wolfe’s story the layers it deserves. It’ll make you wanna hug someone.
