@synesthesia.aesthetic Perverts is a more personal concept album, more so about the specific topic of the actual definition of Perverts. (Besides the harassment part it's known for) it focuses on its meaning to corrupt or distort from the original intent/state. So the Cain story will eventually continue, but she is going to be put to rest for a long time. Perverts will not have characters/overarching story.
Something I most appreciate about Ethel Cain is her encouragement of patient listening. We’re living in a time where we’re flooded with easily-digestible 2-minute songs (not a dig at any of those artists, I enjoy plenty of those songs myself), so it’s really refreshing and mentally stimulating every time Hayden takes us on 7+ minute journeys with her music. These songs start soft and delicate and build into something devouring, explosive, and cathartic. Listening to songs like “Punish,” “Thoroughfare,” and “Two Headed Mother,” there comes a tipping point when I feel my whole being buzzing, as if I’ve taken the first plunge on a roller coaster. Few artists have ever made me feel that intensity of being swallowed up by sounds and I’m so excited that I get to experience Ethel Cain as she creates new art.
The monotonous sound of what seems to be an old swing set is so haunting but it feels universal. Very grateful for the exchange of energy as always. Lovely song
At first I just thought it was a distorted vocal. But it does sound like a swing, and I like that visual a lot. I was a lonely kid and I remember just swinging by myself a lot so it I like that connection.
After reading your post about the current irony epidemic, I’ve realised that sometimes I when I want to comment something, I jump to a joke just because the current state of the internet has deemed comments that appreciate art “doing too much”, and “too serious”. For once I feel like I can really just say that this was a beautiful piece of art that means so much to me, and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Chills. Hayden, if you see this - I love you - this song cuts me so deep in the most beautiful way. I would have related to this up until a couple of months ago. I am in a beautiful, fulfilling relationship for the first time in my life, and it’s hard sometimes with trust, but I have never felt this much love for and from another human being. I am truly happy. Listening to this is definitely a bittersweet experience. I should also note that listening to preachers daughter the first time inspired me to write a novel - which I am still working on and love so dearly. I’m using it similarly to how you use Ethel, but with my own life. It would mean the world to me if you read it someday. Your art inspires art. Thank you for all that you do
your ability to stretch only 2 verses across 6 minute songs will always impress me. you always let songs breathe and grow, it’s while they feel so atmospheric and heavy. another excellent piece of work 🖤
It sounds like a chair sliding back and forth on a wooden floor - almost like reference to Ethel getting up and down from the chair. Or is it something more... perverted?
I just can’t believe it’s actually out. It’s happening. Since I first listened to preachers daughter in late 2022 I have been so deeply in awe and in love with Hayden’s work. There’s so much I could point out and so few words to truly turn my emotions into something comprehensible. If Hayden had never released another song after PD, I would be able to appreciate and continue to be obsessed with her current songs (released and unreleased) until my dying breath. I could be content with that. I sound parasocial, I promise I’m not. I just feel so lucky to live in a time when I found Hayden/Ethel. I don’t think there’s a single person on this planet-past, present, and future-that can make art that I feel so deeply in my soul and that makes me feel real and understood the way Hayden’s art does. The fact that I live in a time when my most favorite artist is putting out new music and I can listen to it like I’ve never heard music in my life is just so beautiful and spiritual. Anyway, that’s all.
sometimes music speaks louder than words ever can, That’s what this song feels to me. This and "Caring Ghost" by Mysteriousic both songs hit a place deep inside me that I don’t often visit, this is a masterpiece of all masterpieces
I'm so grateful I’ve experienced the phases of the Ethel Cain project. I've been a longtime listener who originally discovered White Silas (then Ethel later) so watching this video made me fucking proud. She got the coins to execute the vision and WOW I'm speechless at the visuals. Props to Hayden (duh) but Silken really understood the assignment. They work so well together, I'm super excited to see the future of their work ( if it continues).
I just discovered your work a few weeks ago, after reading your incredible tumblr post about how we're drowning in irony, and I think the sincerity and unabashedness of your music and videos is really a liferaft from that drowning. Even though so much of it harkens back to older eras of music, and older eras of art in general, it really feels like a way forward. Thank you and don't stop being who you are.
Watching her walk down the corridor and the face reveal at the "they made me leave" bit oh my my freckles have floated from my body on the ceiling and the goosebumps I am receiving Absolute art. I love you mother cain so much
Perverts and it’s whole context makes me feel safe and contained with that fact that I know that I can’t feel good being in my body and even if I can’t find it at this very moment, I’ll find it one day and let it happen and I’ll be whole and complete. Love u forever and always for creating art that makes me want to be in my skin🫀🫶
I still don't know how to properly verbalize my love and agreement with your ideas on music and the proximity to God as an agnostic but more than anything i just want to say thank you! Words cannot express the positive effect your music has every day, thank you!
The bar was set extremely high with preacher's daughter. Definitely ready for something of that caliber. This song here reminds me of Emma Ruth Rundle or Chelsea Wolfe, who are both incredibly talented as well, definitely a good direction to take
eeee i have the jitterz waiting for this drop. i am beyond excited for the journey this album will take my mind and ears on, eyes as well. you just know exactly how to express your art and i will appreciate that forever. never stop creating, i love your brain. i heart being an ethel cain fan. it’s happening to every-body.
The guitar hit and I involuntary burst into tears. Just so overwhelmingly beautiful, haunting. Truly captured by the sublime of it all. As always, you've made a masterpiece. You should be oh so very proud of yourself. A privilege to listen to your music and experience your mind and writing and production and be welcomed into your world. Thank you ❤
thank you, hayden. once again, your art makes me feel something i didn’t know was possible to feel. maybe im feeling “it.” whatever it or “it” is i cant help but find myself back on this song over and over again. it resonates in a way that keeps drawing me back. the feeling of the vibrations in my skull and the ambience of it all makes me feel infinite in a way, connected to something greater than myself. music has always been how i feel “it”. listening to some songs brings me to tears no matter how many times i hear them, it’s just the way it physically and emotionally resonates with me. it gives me a pounding in my chest and an almost nauseous, adrenaline feeling. and i love it every time. but i can’t stay there unfortunately, i can’t have that feeling forever, i have to be present. but it’s a treat to be able to feel those things when i can. 🤎
this was such an unreal experience. hayden you are such a visionary. you are such a storyteller. your imagery and the power you wield is unmatched and it genuinely feels like i’m being stabbed in the chest to listen to this in the best. way. possible. holy shit.
Thank you for all the hard work you have put into this new album. As always your artistry and vision in the music as well as the visuals are stunning and haunting. So excited to hear the full album.
The Lyrics ❤ Whatever's wrong with me I will take to bed I give in so easy Nature chews on me Little death like lead Poisonous and heavy It has always been this way Mm, it has always been this way I am punished by love I am punished by love In the morning I will mar myself again He was a natural Plauché, saying "You won't forget this" Shame is sharp, and my skin gives so easy Only God knows, only God would believe That I was an angel, but they made me leave They made me leave I am punished by love I am punished by love I am punished by love I am punished by love
this made me cry. her voice is so sweet and soft, yet powerful. the way she sings every word from her soul gives me chills. i can't wait to hear the album, she is truly brilliant and talented.
3:43 "That I was an angel, but they made me leave. They made me leave" Holy shit i can already tell I'm going to go absolutely feral analysing this album. This part just hit me right in the chest
sitting in my kitchen on election night with my sadness and fear and being able to listen to this... it is a light in my mind and heart. Thank you, Ethel Cain. ❤
I like to think personally this is a continuation possibly of Preacher's daughter. Ethel is now roaming the plain as a angel. Casted out of heaven due to the fact she was 'no longer pure' as god punishes her for 'not being a good enough woman' after everything that happened during Preacher's Daughter. Now she's back possible punishing the ones who did her wrong or the 'Perverts' and might become a protector of women who starts to go through the same thing Ethel did way back when she was alive. Again totally my opinion! I understand this is another project but I love drawing things together if I see it fit!!! Wonderful work and can't wait for the album to come out
Ethel you captured such a specific feeling here. The feeling of wrestling with God. I know exactly what you mean when you say only God knows, yet I still plead with him to remember the child I used to be, before it all fell apart, and now I know what you mean when you say it’s happening to every-body.
discovered your music two years ago and fell in love with it immediately. i can’t verbalize how happy it makes me to know that your new project is coming soon, i am looking very forward to listen to it ♡
Most beautiful song I’ve heard yet, I’m excited for what’s to come in January! Thank you for releasing this ❤️ it’s happening to everybody and it’s definitely happening to me.
The background creaking sound idk it sounds like doors opening and closing with rusty hinges. But the more i hear it, the more it sounds like the last sound of a cattle being slaughtered. It's haunting me just the way the first time I heard it when I was young.
Your music always leaves me with physical goosegumps and i think that means something tbh. the haunting vibe of this song really captures a specific emotion and visceral feeling that i can point to and nod to within my own life.
What a gift it is to find an artist who can communicate and express what sometimes feel like the darkest depths of the soul. It's got to be one of my favourite experiences in existence. I hope one day to find myself enough to express myself and provide the same service and gift to others 💚 thank you Hayden
I just want to say this makes me feel less alone and puts to feeling something of course I couldn't in words, but you give us so much more than just concept, you give us a universe to step into and a story that builds upon itself and something primordial... I feel like I just found something floating up from my bathtub that I lost as a child "that I was an angel, but they made me leave" and then those heavy chords and ur face ahhhhh wow
I am beyond grateful I stumbled across your music, Hayden. Unfortunately, I discovered you a week after a show of yours in the Netherlands and the most recent one I was unable to attend. However, I hope you know how brilliantly haunting your music, your voice, and your poetry is. A once in a lifetime artist.
i listened to this for the first time last night and 3:50 took my breath away. i couldn’t stop myself from audibly reacting and just saying “oh my god.” genuinely, most music doesn’t get a reaction out of me the way yours does. i will forever appreciate your ability to create songs that completely and totally surround me. great work as always, hayden. i’m so excited to hear the new project in its full glory.
The creaking sounds kinda sound like muffled voices or strained last breaths of someone on their death bed as their lungs give out, they’re so eerie but also weirdly familiar. They set the tone of the song so perfectly.

Yes literally right now
I have been punished. And i will be punished over, and over, and over again.
Whatever's wrong with me
I will take to bed
I give in so easy
Nature chews on me
Little death like lead
Poisonous and heavy
It has always been this way
It has always been this way
I am punished by love
I am punished by love
In the morning I will mar myself again

the sadness of a child bringing reminiscent tears to our hearts of stone, and we can no longer hide
Ik its a swing (chair) but at first I thought it sounded a lot like the word mom too
It’s very nostalgic I love it
Dropping this not only a new moon, but a SCORPIO new moon, a sign of rebirth, death and shadows. This is powerful diva

the creaking in the background sounds like breathing in and out weakly it's feels so emotional
or like even being on a rocking chair in pain
It sounds like a chair sliding back and forth on a wooden floor - almost like reference to Ethel getting up and down from the chair. Or is it something more... perverted?
it reminded me of those old playground swings that make the same awful creaking with every swing
At first, I thought it was moaning. I don't know, still not sure...

This is seriously so hauntingly beautiful! Mother is Mothering
Watching her walk down the corridor and the face reveal at the "they made me leave" bit oh my my freckles have floated from my body on the ceiling and the goosebumps I am receiving
Absolute art. I love you mother cain so much
I actually teared up at the guitar drop. I've been having a really difficult month and this is the perfect way to end it, thank you

The Lyrics ❤
Whatever's wrong with me
I will take to bed
I give in so easy
Nature chews on me
Little death like lead
Poisonous and heavy
It has always been this way
Mm, it has always been this way
I am punished by love
I am punished by love
In the morning I will mar myself again
He was a natural Plauché, saying "You won't forget this"
Shame is sharp, and my skin gives so easy
Only God knows, only God would believe
That I was an angel, but they made me leave
They made me leave
I am punished by love
I am punished by love
I am punished by love
I am punished by love
my eyes started to tear up out of nowhere?????
Hayden, my mother has passed away last tuesday, I know for sure your new music will fulfill the emptiness I'm feeling right now...
i’m so sorry for your loss, my dad passed away last year and preachers daughter helped that fresh deep wound 😭
Sorry for your loss 🕊️
my heart is with you, im deeply sorry for your loss! ❤
🫂
im so sorry for your loss
Dopest visuals and music as usual.
The voice, the visuals, the instrumentals and the video is pure art
this made me cry. her voice is so sweet and soft, yet powerful. the way she sings every word from her soul gives me chills. i can't wait to hear the album, she is truly brilliant and talented.
shaking crying throwing up this is amazing i love it i feel like i’ve just ascended to Godhod
The visuals are absolutely gorgeous, I specifically love the shot before you remove the veil, I would get that tattooed
your music never ceases to amaze me, literally one of the best artists of this generation. never been this excited for an album before
Very cathartic. We are never alone. ❤
Hollyyyyyyyyy cowwwwwww it’s happening to us all right now finally!!!
Of course the music speaks for itself.
The visual imagery too is so powerful.
Thank you for this gift.
I love the electric guitar it makes it sound so haunting ur a genius
This is beautiful 🖤I'm incredibly excited for the new album.
this is hauntingly beautiful it feels like a new voice, a new sentiment, a new feeling. absolutely in love.
i’ve never had an artist more accurately depict my thoughts and the way i feel into music before
3:50 the slow melodic sounds make this absolutely soul crushing I love it so much
Uau Ethel! Isso é incrível!
3:43
"That I was an angel, but they made me leave. They made me leave"
Holy shit i can already tell I'm going to go absolutely feral analysing this album. This part just hit me right in the chest
bruh i love this! i love the gentle piano and the sound of her voice. so calm yet sad and sorrowful at the same time
Some songs feel like the wind, so powerful and heart-rending. This is one of those songs for me.
The sound of the swing set is so unbelievably beautiful and haunting
Beautiful right? I imaging a rocking chair when I hear that sound.
Watching this in a haze after having a nightmare bc I fell asleep waiting for it to drop. Beautiful work Hayden, thanks
This just absolutely devastated me
Your voice is so soothing and healing, love you Ethel 🖤
God what a SONG. The atmosphere is incredible. It's a rare thing for a piece of music to capture a mood and feeling this somber this well. In love.
sitting in my kitchen on election night with my sadness and fear and being able to listen to this... it is a light in my mind and heart. Thank you, Ethel Cain. ❤
Waking up to heavy rain and then this video was the kinda dark melancholic moment I didn’t know I needed. Sonically and visually profound as always.
this genuinely changed my life. your art is so unique and beautiful. i’m so excited for perverts
I believe this is the first time I’m truly grateful for tiktok for showing me such an astounding artist
Thank you Ethel, you are a blessing 🥀
ON HALLOWEEN TOO. SCREAMING
it’s happening to everybody over and over again and again
Sonic boom is massive. Beautiful.
this is genuinely so beautiful
never stop
making music pls
Pls never

I feel like I just found something floating up from my bathtub that I lost as a child "that I was an angel, but they made me leave" and then those heavy chords and ur face ahhhhh wow
I am beyond grateful I stumbled across your music, Hayden. Unfortunately, I discovered you a week after a show of yours in the Netherlands and the most recent one I was unable to attend. However, I hope you know how brilliantly haunting your music, your voice, and your poetry is. A once in a lifetime artist.
Oooooh you know how long I been waiting for this?? Oooooh I’m bouta make a name for myself
This was so beautiful. The drop gave me chills. I love you so much mother
i listened to this for the first time last night and 3:50 took my breath away. i couldn’t stop myself from audibly reacting and just saying “oh my god.” genuinely, most music doesn’t get a reaction out of me the way yours does. i will forever appreciate your ability to create songs that completely and totally surround me. great work as always, hayden. i’m so excited to hear the new project in its full glory.
genuinely one of my new favorite ethel songs it is so so beautiful
once again proving how incredibly hauntingly talented you are. this is beautiful
The visual language in this video is so crazy oh my god, not to mention the music too oml
The creaking sounds kinda sound like muffled voices or strained last breaths of someone on their death bed as their lungs give out, they’re so eerie but also weirdly familiar. They set the tone of the song so perfectly.
You're the face of love's rage
I am so glad to exist in a time period where Ethel Cain is releasing amazing music and videos ❤❤❤ love you so much Hayden
best thing to listen to on samhain🤍 so beautiful
