Chelsea Wolfe - Iron Moon (Official Audio) 

This song is about Xu Lizhi, a young Chinese worker who ended his life back in 2014. During his short lifetime, he wrote some wondrous poems. The poems were about the hard and unforgiving lives of the workers. The song's name is a reference to one of his poems: "I swallowed a Moon Made of Iron" He was born only two weeks after I came to this world and while I was living an easy life my parents provided me, he lived in the shadows of factories, enslaved by corporations blinded by avarice. He was a beautiful person in a fucked up world.

Again.....I fucking love this woman

The last part sounds like thousands of people screaming in agony, it never fails to raise the hairs on my neck and cry involuntarily like a baby. One of the best songs ever. What a touching homage to the Foxconn employees.

it's pretty ridiculous how Chelsea only gets better; legitimately didn't think it was even possible..

darker than ever

"Iron Moon" A dead sun, a pale glow Upon the walls I feign to know We bear no fruit, no flowers, no life And we get sick but never die Become an echo Resounding “let go” My heart is a tomb My heart is an empty room I've given it away I never want to see it again I go to him in paths of dreams In bed awake with shadow beings They crawl inside and wait with me The creatures here become machines Walk with me to a place of trust Death will no longer silence us My heart is a tomb My heart is an empty room I've given it away I never want to see it again And all your words could save me But keep your love away from me In all the world's decaying Is there a place that’s safe for us? My heart is a tomb My heart is an empty room I've given it away I've swallowed the iron moon Moon, moon

I like how she explores different styles, and focuses on some... unique artist.

Beyond darkness dwells Miss Wolfe..

So Blissful, like succumbing to death but feeling that last bit of Ecstasy before its all over..

Easily one of the most innovative musicians out there today. Wish I could see her at desert daze

Fuck, it's like Type O Negative and Swans had a baby. I'm smitten.

Pretty cool blending the more ambient doom metal with folky clean guitars/vocals. Chelsea seems like she is more comfortable with her own style now. Fucking kick-ass! Pre-ordered the CD because I always know Chelsea will rock!

I know this song is about the suicide of a foxconn worker who loved poetry and couldnt escape the life, but this is exactly how I feel about the world. Dead on. This song is what is in my heart. I love her...been listening to her for years now ever since Advice and Vices came out and Tall bodies...shes always been a favorite of mine. In my top 5 for sure

Every person or creature who has ever lived with eyes that see has seen the moon in the sky, and it has carried their sorrows without question. Look up. Feel the weight of it pulling on your gravity. So many lives of pain and Triumph. Whatever the outcome, it's heavy from all of us: Iron Moon

Seriously.... this is Chelsea Wolfe teaching the world what real music is.

i feel like this is the chelseawolfest song she's released so far

So much respect for Chelsea...

我弥留之际》 “On My Deathbed” 我想再看一眼大海，目睹我半生的泪水有多汪洋 I want to take another look at the ocean, behold the vastness of tears from half a lifetime 我想再爬一爬高高的山头，试着把丢失的灵魂喊回来 I want to climb another mountain, try to call back the soul that I’ve lost 我还想摸一摸天空，碰一碰那抹轻轻的蓝 I want to touch the sky, feel that blueness so light 可是这些我都办不到了，我就要离开这个世界了 But I can’t do any of this, so I’m leaving this world 所有听说过我的人们啊 Everyone who’s heard of me 不必为我的离开感到惊讶 Shouldn’t be surprised at my leaving 更不必叹息，或者悲伤 Even less should you sigh or grieve 我来时很好，去时，也很好 I was fine when I came, and fine when I left. -- Xu Lizhi, 30 September 2014

《一颗螺丝掉在地上》 "A Screw Fell to the Ground" 一颗螺丝掉在地上 A screw fell to the ground 在这个加班的夜晚 In this dark night of overtime 垂直降落，轻轻一响 Plunging vertically, lightly clinking 不会引起任何人的注意 It won’t attract anyone’s attention 就像在此之前 Just like last time 某个相同的夜晚 On a night like this 有个人掉在地上 When someone plunged to the ground -- 9 January 2014

Her voice and words haunt me like no other singer has in quite some time.

If only more of her music was like this

saw gorbirger, instant fan, thank the gods there's comedian willing to play actual music on his comedy central show.

It get better and better the more I hear it

I saw her live a couple weeks ago. She still keeps this electronic sound even outside a studio setting. I was beyond impressed.

Beautifully foreboding.

better than i even expected

I love you so much Chelsea Wolfe.

Dude, the intro is heavy as Crowbar, that's an accomplishment!

crushing

Dark, twisted and lovely. I can't wait until the album is physically in my hands.

increase electronics, pull loops through my ear skin, drag bodies through doom, give us wings of angelic voice

What a legendary Masterpiece this song is. Outstanding!

Makes you think about beauty. About how, you only have so much time. And, you see all the death...The destruction...and you embrace it. Semper Fi.

I never hear something like this before. These days are perfect to hear this stuff.

This is so heavy on my heart, i almost cried.

How I'm just listening to her is beyond me. This song is perfect, she's perfect! The beginning sounded very influenced by black metal, I also hear that in some of her other songs as well and saw somewhere that she did a cover of one of burzum songs. Very unique sound she has so happy I found her.

This album has changed my life. Thanks be to God for such beautiful music.

R.I.P. Xu Lizhi

Best singl of the year. Not an exaderation

"Walk with me to a place of trust/Death will no longer silence us"

Well damn, I just bought tickets to her show before listening to her new songs. [Anticipation Intensifies]

When Ezra screams through the bridge IN KEY.

fucking crushing. chelsea's best album yet. and I'm in love

A dead sun, a pale glow. Upon the walls I feign to know. We bear no fruit, no flowers, no life. And we get sick but never die. Become an echo resounding "let go". My heart is a tomb. My heart is an empty room. I've given it away. I never want to see it again. I go to him in paths of dreams. In bed awake with shadow beings. They crawl inside and wait with me. The creatures here become machines. Walk with me to a place of trust. Death will no longer silence us. My heart is a tomb. My heart is an empty room. I've given it away. I never want to see it again. And all your words could save me. But keep your love away from me. In all the world's decaying is there a place that's safe for us? My heart is a tomb. My heart is an empty room. I've given it away. I swallowed the iron moon. Moon, moon.

True dank. I synched this up with a Metal Gear Solid trailer and I was putting so hard.

That intro gave me chills down my spine like I've never experienced before. Tuned to fucking perfection.

Good god damn this is one of the best albums I've heard in ages. It's like Neurosis + Jarboe after too much My Bloody Valentine, but scratch that, it was just in one of St. Vincent's dreams.

Super morceau ! Merci Chelsea ! Je n'écoutais plus de musique jusqu'à ce que je te découvre et ça va peut-être m'aider à me relever...

Love these darker female artists. Chelsea Wolfe and Torres could definitely be in my top 5 albums come the end of the year.

Is it just me, or is Chelsea Wolfe's catalogue/body of work/ouvre;) like idk wtf unbelievably almost flawless? I'm sure she would beg to differ but Good Goddamn she is amazing. I've yet to hear anything she's done that hasn't blown me bloody head off. Yes dangerously high Xpectations but geez. I'll shut up now. Long May She Reign

Chelsea Wolfe is my new favourite musician to listen to. I just bought part of her album Abyss on iTunes...the reason being that I had already spent much of my money buying a full album by TV On The Radio from iTunes. Her songs are really good. They capture my sombre angst as a twenty-something man teetering on the edge of loneliness. When I do get another gift card, I'll be sure to complete the album collection by buying the remaining songs I didn't get to buy on iTunes.

I love this song.

This album should be the soundtrack to Penny Dreadful! Love it!!

This is insanely good! She's on a different level than most

I've never wanted summer to go by fast but august 7th is very far away... i need an abyss to crawl into ; D

Totally Song of the day, 290415. Oh! Merci Merci SH

Best mixes ever

Saw Chelsea last night. She was amazing as always, shame she didn't play this song live, but still amazing nonetheless.

Legendary shit right here folks

I love this chick 🖤

killer track

My only regret in life in missing her concert.

Reminds me a little of the second track on grouper - ruins from the way she delivers alot of her vocals all over this track.. Absolutely love it

I love this and all her music! Pleasant surprise that John Congleton is involved on her album! That guy is a genius!!!

All Chelsea Wolfe's stuff is so hauntingly beautiful. I am so glad Stephanie Opal Weinstein turned me on to her music some years earlier. This was the first album of her's i have ever heard & it remains my favorite

Wow! You've come a long way from True Love!

abyss bundle ordered! I now wait patiently for August 7th and hopefully a UK tour

Awesome song, the soundtrack brings so much life to the show.

Holy shit

This thing totally hit me, never heard of Chelsea Wolfe before. So damn amazing, dark and beautiful

A masterpiece. Everything dies. Sometimes we die before our bodies. The Iron Moon...See you around he dark side

This is incredible. I can't wait.

I love this. Very excited about Abyss.

God damn son, 5 minutes of cold goosebumps running through my entire spine to the top of my cranium, this is intense. /repeat

Simply beautiful

Dark and perfect.

Look forward to the album. One of my favorite artists. :)

So good.

Stunned.

Soothing sounds.

Right through the heart, this song.. such a great album too

Amazing... Just amazing...

She just keeps on getting better with every release. I'm excited for the new album. Can't wait to hear the rest of it,

Album is a masterpiece

HOLY SHIT - ANSELMO BROUGHT ME HERE - DAMN!!!!!!!

So good 😍😍

It reminds me of Solstice - Only the Strong so much.

I just recently discovered this brilliant and beautiful artist. This music just sings to my soul in a way most of the world probably wouldn't quite understand. This song is absolutely beautiful and so fucking heavy. Also, wouldn't it be fucking amazing to hear/see a collaboration between Chelsea Wolfe and Rasputina? I don't know. Think about it. I think it would be fucking beautiful.

I'm really holding myself from pre-ordering ALL the new merch. and it's so painful waiting for the whole album to get released

damn ! first time ive heard chelsea,,i love what im hearing preordering the new cd now!

This shit is fucking insane, I LOVE IT

coming September 29, 2015 to Neumos Seattle WA

impressed and excited

D'avin and the magic of his "D". KILLJOYS! S02E07 Heart Shaped Box

THIS IS DOOM METAL

Well, there goes any work I put into trying to make my work the first thing that comes up when someone looks up Iron Moon... Been using the name for almost 3 years now but then here comes along a pretty dope song by the same title and now I have this giant shadow to get out of.

Kewl as usual!!!!!

Chelsea gets better and better. O_O \m/

Damn why didn't I know of that new album before.
