Anna von Hausswolff has announced details of a new album.
'Dead Magic' will be the Gothenburg-based artist's fourth album, and is due for release on March 2 via City Slang.
In addition, von Hausswolff has shared the first cut from the album, The Mysterious Vanishing of Electra, a series of live dates in the UK and Europe and a message for her fans.
“Dear listeners.
This is the first track from my new album, 'Dead Magic'!
Me, my band and Randall Dunn spent 9 days in Copenhagen recording this record. The great pipe organ you’re hearing is a 20th century instrument located in Marmor Kirken, "The Marble Church", Copenhagen.
Here is a poem for you by the Swedish writer Walter Ljungquist (1900-1974):
”Take the fate of a human being, a thin pathetic line that contours and encircles an infinite and unknown silence. It is in this very silence, in an only imagined and unknown centre, that legends are born. Alas! That is why there are no legends in our time. Our time is a time deprived of silence and secrets; in their absence no legends can grow."
Please enjoy the music.
Yours sincerely,
Anna von Hausswolff"
