Old love haunts me in the morning,
Old love haunts me in the evening,
and the remnants of pictures come alive.
I told you that I loved you,
by the lake with the summer done.
Come all your careless wanderers,
by the lake with the days of rum.
When I first saw you in the sunshine,
with the speckles and flecks in your eyes.
When I first saw you in the moonlight,
It is true that I thought that I might die.
I told you that I loved you,
By the lake with the summer done.
Come all your careless wanderers,
by the lake with the days of rum.

This album gurns and churns with the dense, atmospheric power of an angel wrestling the forces of hell.
Wolfe's voice is an ethereal swirl, but it can cut like a blade. Her guitar, meanwhile, is a reaper's scythe, and with it, she flails like a Balrog summoned deep and raging from the bowels of Middle Earth.
It's an album of dreams and nightmares, a sludge-gaze torrent of painful questions hurled into the void.
A brave, bold and empowering listen. Michael Mueller

Stunning album where everything just works. Chelsea sounds amazing as always, the production fits the songs perfectly and the powerful cover art completes the package. rhatgod
Don't be deceived by the grim album art; the Sydney artist's latest is a polished pop album filled with pop-punk hooks and dreamy textures. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 8, 2021
