Atlas (2015—2018)[]
Atlas (also stylized as atlas, ATLAS, and ΛTLΛS) was an alias used by Hayden Anhedönia from 2015 to 2018, releasing an album and an EP, as well as various singles. The name was inspired by Anhedönia's former self-given name, Hayden Apollo Atlas. In 2016, she released the EP Apologetics on SoundCloud, featuring one track initially from her scrapped album Synapse, as well as two other tracks.
In June 2017, Anhedönia began recording her debut album under the Atlas alias, Colossus, which was completed and released in October 2017. It was the only album released as Atlas. Hayden planned four other albums under the name, including Nazir, with Hayden releasing its lead single Teddy before ultimately scrapping the project.
The alias eould be abandoned in favour of White Silas in 2018. Despite that, a remastered version of Colossus would be re-released by White Silas, however it would be taken down once more when Hayden abandoned the White Silas moniker.

Witchcest (2017)[]
Witchcest was an alias used for a sideproject in 2017, while making music as Atlas. The project was in affiliation with E_Death (who was then performing under the pseudonym Spirit Bored), and they released one single, "Just Snorted a Pill" under the name. The song was intended to be the lead single to a self-titled extended play (EP), however this never came to be.
The moniker remained dormant for six years, until the song was removed from streaming services in 2023. An auto-generated YouTube audio still remains, however it is unknown whether it is due to complications of removal, or lack of knowledge from Anhedönia's party.

White Silas (2018—2019)[]
After abandoning the alias 'ATLAS', Hayden would release music as White Silas. The first project under the name was Arcane Vessels in March 2018.

Hayden would also feature on songs of his under the name 'Little Triste'.
Honey Whiskey (2018)[]

Ethel Cain (2019—Present)[]
Ethel Cain is by far the most popular and most expansive alias used by Hayden Anhedönia, starting in 2019 until the present day. Hayden would first released the now deleted Bruises in August 2019, followed by the Carpet Bed EP the following month. She would also release Golden Age in December of that year.
After signing to Prescription Songs in 2021, Hayden would release the Inbred EP that same year, followed by her debut album, Preacher's Daughter in 2022, the first of three concept albums, however these albums are yet to ne released. In 2023, Hayden would work on a B-Sides EP to Preacher's Daughter, but was scrapped, and would later become 'Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You'.
Hayden would detour from the Preacher's Daughter Universe, releasing Perverts in January 2025. Later that year she would release the prequel album to Preacher's Daughter, Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You.
Tommy (2021—2025)[]
Originally titled "Miss Anhedönia', Tommy is an alternate soundcloud used by Hayden to post demos, remixes, and unreleased songs. The account originally gained traction with the song Tongue, however it has since been deleted.
The account was originally found under the name 'Miss Anhedönia', however was renamed to Tommy, presumably to make it harder to link back to Hayden.
Ashmedaiii (2021—2025)[]
Ashmedai is an ambient project posted to soundcloud by Hayden between 2021 and 2025, beginning with a demo version of Housofpsychoticwomn. From 2023 onwards, the alias mostly consisted of unnamed songs numerically titled from '000' to '015', as part of a playlist titled '000000000'.
The final track released to the account was the aformentioned 015, however during Hayden's cancellation, the account was deleted.
Whiine (2023)[]
Whiine was a briefly used alias in collaboration with Vyva Melinkolya in 2023. One track would emerge from this collaboration, titled Come Up. Little is known about the collaboration, and it is unknown whether any further projects were planned or if any other music will be released in the future.
