Bloodless is the new album by Los Angeles-based musician and writer Claire Cronin. Expanding upon the supernatural and metaphysical themes of her critically acclaimed 2019 album Big Dread Moon and her 2020 horror memoir% Blue Light of the Screen (published by Repeater Books), Bloodless is a powerful work of haunted Americana by one of contemporary indie musicEs finest singer-songwriters. Like its musical predecessor, Big Dread Moon, the arrangements on Bloodless's nine songs are stripped and sparse, CroninEs steady electric guitar and spectral voice holding center as strings and synthesizers provide wisps of eerie atmosphere. The sound of Bloodless is both more visceral and more subliminal than Big Dread Moon, due in equal part to months of intensive home recording by Cronin and Ezra Buchla (Cronin's husband and violist) and expert mixing by Deerhoof's John Dieterich (who previously collaborated with Cronin on her 2016 album Came Down a Storm).
