ChindiWolf - "Myself"
A self-portrait soaked in vitriol and hefty swigs of bourbon, a steppe-wolf’s confession, "Myself" is ChindiWolf’s first album, firmly rooted in the Dark Country / Western Gothic scene. Each track has its own distinct character while preserving a strong stylistic unity. "Myself" draws on a wide range of influences—from Jay Munly to Lee Hazlewood (“If I Were”), touches closer to Neo-folk, hints of Spiritual Front (“With the Devil’s Wife”), while “Lost” leans more toward Goth Rock, somewhere between Sisters of Mercy and Ikon.
A disillusioned folk album filled with dark, cynical visions. A misanthropic crooner facing his fate by singing of chaos, poison, visions of ruins, promises of apocalypse, lust, loneliness… Despite its melodic wrapping, "Myself" contains dark, vivid tales set to music by a sinister troubadour. ChindiWolf; A touch of purity, freedom, loyalty mixed with lonewolf athems and praises for the devil.
