Tracks:

Chelsea Wolfe's LP "apokalypsis" is a doom filled, but relaxing collection of dark wave folk songs. Released on Pendu Sound based out of New York City.
I just happened to stumble upon Chelsea's music and right away it reminded me of Beck's early years. But Chelsea was different. Her music is very dark and soothing. Tracks like "The Wasteland" just put meatloaf in my chest. Just awesome. The background screeching, sounds like something you would hear in a haunted house.
Over all the whole LP just flows together. Its a constant feel to the album, some more upbeat songs but nothing that doesn't work well with the other tracks. All Wolfe's music is best lissend to in the dark or on a midnight drive on the high way. Just relaxing.
Other Releases:
Tour 2009 EP (not sure if this was an official release. Seven tracks not seen on any other LP)
The Grime and the Glow LP 2010

You Love Her Coz She's Dead Review
You Love Her Coz She's Dead's Debut Self Titled LP.
Track List:
1. Leap of Desire I
2. Sunday Best
3. Mud ft. Sucker Twin
4. Legacy
5. Blinded
6. This is a Raid
7. Pull Out the Nails
8. Leap of Desire II
9. Nowhere to Run
10. Softer Cell
You Love Her Coz She's Dead's (YLHCSD) Elle Dead and Jay Dead formed in 2007 in the United Kingdom.
Very much like other bands like Crystal Castles and Kap Bambino but YLHCSD seems to have a little bit more electro influences in their music. For example the track "Mud" has some Dubstep wobble ect. And previous to this debut they released two Mix Tapes with remixes and other artist they were into like Justice, Uffie, Bloody Beetroots, Skrillex and many more. This influence show's in the debut.
This release has nothing ground breaking but never the less very entertaining. 7/10
Tracks that I like a lot: "Blinded", "Nowhere to Run", "Pull Out the Nails" and "Legacy".
Tracks that are okay but mostly skip: "Softer Cell".
Over all great work You Love Her Coz She's Dead on the Debut.
