"Dark" Americana, a la Earth
Recommend me some dark, slow Americana-type stuff, a la more recent Earth, some Nick Cave, King Dude, some Do Make Say Think. Vocals are fine, but really looking for some slow, twangy jams. What you got? I've been on a huge Earth kick recently and need something new!

Re: "Dark" Americana, a la Earth
Does you only want electric music or is acoustic OK too?

Re: "Dark" Americana, a la Earth
Dead Man OST and Morricone stuff definitely fits!
And you guys should check this out: https://acrosstundras.bandcamp.com/albu ... one-guitar
Electric is ideal! What else you got?

Re: "Dark" Americana, a la Earth
Also, not like Earth at all, but Murder By Death and O Death are both good choices. Both dark Americana but not really heavy.trace wrote:Wovenhand/16 Horsepower

This still rules though. Anyway I can't link youtubes really but Barn Owl come close and so does that first Souvenirs Young America record.

Re: "Dark" Americana, a la Earth
Well, who knows where this fits in the dark "Americana" spectrum?

So many good ones. Grails, obvs:

The Red Dead Redemption soundtrack has a lot of gems.
Butcher Boy does this sort of stuff really well, too, although they jump around a bit stylistically:
