Hexed to Death
by Woven In

so fluidly and masterfully is the sound of 1977 captured on this record that the tones of certain instruments on certain songs resonated with me in a way that I haven't felt since I was probably 18; other music that works within this world of sound has to work much harder to generate that from me. likely to become for me an immense comfort album through repeated listening
Favorite track: Ghost Me.

Brought together from two sides, Hexed to Death is a perfect album to be a crash course in Woven In. Synthpunk, rockabilly, experimental electronica, etc.
Favorite track: Black Jean City.

When I meet someone and they say it was meant to be
They've said it to the last one now they're saying it to me
Do you really mean it when you say that you love me?
Do you really mean it when you say that you love me?
Do you really mean it are you in it for the long haul?
Were you only lonely wanting someone on call?
Do you really mean it?
Do you really mean it?
Do you really mean it?

about
Hexed to Death is a culmination of instrumentations and emotions. Woven In has always kept this undertone of neverlasting love and starting the album of with the song "Do You Really Mean It?" confirms that sentiment. Some other themes are non-romantic love, kink, bravery and Some songs are rerecords of previously released songs but with different instruments. It's an album where I embrace change and experiments. It's groundwork for new sounds in the near future.
This is a digital only remaster release of Hexed to Death which was originally out in April 2019. This special edition of this fabulous album should get everyone's eardrums ready for new music by her out on lathe cut and cassette later in 2020.

kate can wait's Veraniegas is an incredible album. The songs on it are incredible, both musically and lyrically. I tried to pick a favorite track, but they're all so good and I couldn't. Just a delight to listen to. Definitely take some time to listen to it. Thanks for releasing such a wonderful album.
