Next month, Chelsea Wolfe will release her new album, Birth Of Violence, following 2017’s Hiss Spun. So far, we’ve heard its folk-leaning lead single, “The Mother Road” and the haunting follow-up “American Darkness.” Today, the Los Angeles artist shares “Be All Things.”

The song is about “navigating the world as a woman: reconciling the soft and the strong, balancing the warrior and the goddess, and wanting to be everything and nothing at the same time,” Wolfe reveals in a statement. “Telling stories through song allows me to explore so many facets of myself; so many lives within. Some days I want to be quiet and reach my roots into the earth, and some days I want to spring up from the ground and be all things.”

Its accompanying music video compiles footage taken in “a few magical locations,” as Wolfe puts it. Settings include southwestern Iceland (where the Birth Of Violence album cover was shot), inside Northern California’s Moaning Cavern (a marble cavern 450-feet deep that Wolfe “visited as a child and sang in as an adult”), and a Victorian era hotel in California. Ben Chisholm filmed the footage.
