southern gothic to inspire dread
The "Old Gods of Appalachia" playlist is a haunting journey through the dark and mystical heart of Americana and folk. Featuring tracks like Brown Bird's gritty "Bilgewater" and the mournful "Dead in the Water" by SPELLES, this collection sets a moody, introspective tone. Blues Saraceno's intense "Dogs of War" and "Judgement Day" add an air of foreboding, while Patty Loveless’ “You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive” and Johnny Cash’s evocative "Hurt" offer a deeper dive into Appalachian storytelling.
The collection sways between the melancholy, like Jacob Danielsen-Moore’s somber "Charcoal Suit," and the edgy twang of "Build Momma a Coffin" by Blood on the Harp. Adding layers of mysticism and grit are "Devil's Eyes" by Creech Holler and "Arsonist's Lullabye" by Hozier. Jamie N Commons' “Lead Me Home” provides a soulful interlude among tales of sin, redemption, and eternal wanderers. Perfect for fans of raw, evocative soundscapes that conjure the ancient spirits of the Appalachian hills.
