Cursed melodies, possessed singers, graveyard debts and ancient oaths. Welcome to the darkness that never dies.

Tales from the Void

A chilling gothic folk horror ballad, "The Lumberjack's Oath" weaves a tale of fevered promises, frozen graves, and the forest's vengeful return—where a dying lumberjack swears to scout beyond death and comes back transformed by the woods themselves. Blending working-class grit with ancient folklore, this dark Americana nightmare reminds us: some oaths bind forever, and the trees remember every cut.

The Lumberjack's oath

A hauntingly slow Dark Americana ballad, "Same Bend,  Same Note" traps the listener in an eternal loop of futile repetition—swinging the same axe, driving the same bend, chasing unresolved notes that echo into infinity. With whispering layers, infinite slide guitar echoes, and a fixed twilight sun, this gothic folk nightmare explores hell not as fire, but as perfect, unchanging routine where beauty fades yet the motion never ends.  #DarkAmericana #GothicFolk #EternalLoop #RepetitiveHell #ExistentialBallad #TragicFolk

The same Bend, the same Note

A brooding Southern Gothic blues ballad, "Dirt Road Crossroads" revisits the classic devil's bargain twenty years later—fame's hollow price coming due under a harvest moon, with mournful fiddle requiems, weeping slide guitar, and raw gravelly vocals painting fateful regret and inevitable collection. Rag'n'Bone Man depth meets Tyler Childers storytelling in this ominous tale of sold souls and borrowed glory.  #SouthernGothic #DirtRoadCrossroads #DevilBargain #DarkAmericana #BluesBallad #OccultFolk

Dirt Road Cross Roads

A chilling Shadow Folk incantation from the cursed Appalachian hollows, "Cursed Melodies" warns of ancient songs unearthed from coffin wood—haunting tunes that possess singers, plant seeds of night, and turn souls black with unstoppable darkness. Delivered in a deep, gravelly White Buffalo-style baritone over acoustic guitar, distant fiddle, banjo whispers, and mountain wind drones, this slow-burning dread ballad embodies forbidden hymns that wait in the fog to claim new voices. #DarkAmericana #ShadowF  #CursedMelodies #AppalachianHorror #OccultFolk #GothicBallad

Cursed Melodies

A harrowing Dark Americana confession, "I Am the Host" chronicles a man's unwilling role as vessel for a demon that corrupts holy light in everyone he loves—forcing self-imposed exile to protect them from his poisonous touch. With themes of damnation worn like skin, curdling blessings, and sacrificial loneliness, this gothic folk nightmare blends tragic isolation with possessive horror.
