Chelsea Wolfe shares new track "Diana" from Dark Nights: Death Metal soundtrack

"Diana" is Wolfe's second new outing of the year, following January's "Anhedonia", which featured Emma Ruth Rundle.

The new song is lifted from the Dark Nights: Death Metal soundtrack, and is inspired by Wonder Woman in the DC Comics series of the same name.

Wolfe says of the song, "It has been such an honour and delight to be involved in this whole project, from contributing a song to the soundtrack, to voicing Wonder Woman for the DC Comics Sonic Metalverse episodes. I really love the story and artwork of this Dark Nights: Death Metal series, and felt really drawn to Diana’s part in the story - her strength and perspective. There’s this moment in the first comic book issue where she meets with Wally West and he’s so drained from his travels and all he’s had to do. I picked up on this intimate energy between them that felt almost romantic, but more just like two old friends who have an understanding between them - a moment of comfort and respite amongst all the fighting and chaos. I ended up writing this song about that encounter."

She adds, "Working with Tyler Bates on "Diana" was a great experience. He’s obviously so killer at creating music that feels like the soundtrack to your own movie, so between him and my co-producer Ben Chisholm there was this elevated sonic landscape surrounding the song that just brought it to a different level."

The Dark Nights: Death Metal sounndtrack will also feature contributions from HEALTH, Denzel Curry, IDLES, Soccer Mommy, Manchester Orchestra and more.
