Album Notes & Community Reviews

The band's sophomore album is a dark and powerful statement that solidified their unique sound. 'Salvation is a Deep Dark Well' is a collection of rousing, narrative-driven anthems that blend the macabre storytelling of gothic country with the foot-stomping energy of folk-punk and the fervor of gospel music. It's a fiery and memorable record, full of dark tales and singalong choruses.
