American Gothic

by Wayfarer

American Gothic cover art

Conceptually rooted in the dark history and mythos of the American frontier, this Colorado band masterfully fuses atmospheric black metal with gothic country and Americana. The record utilizes twangy acoustic instrumentation, slide guitars, and clean vocal passages to paint a grim, cinematic portrait of the dying West.
