Greek dark/folk country band :Skull & Dawn: will release their second full-length album, The Harvest, on 17 October through The Circle Music. The first single, "Down To Hell (Black Cat Bar)", is out now with a new video.
An introductory track to the album's sound, "Down To Hell (Black Cat Bar)" tells a story of late-night revelry and a dark descent. The band describes it as an "urban ceremony" filled with banjos, distorted guitars, percussion, chains and "lots of alcohol", culminating in a fall into a "dark well" that leads straight to hell.
The upcoming album, The Harvest, dives deep into a mysterious world of Southern Gothic horror, featuring songs about dead lovers, serial killers, lone cowboys, and lost souls. The album blends the :Skull & Dawn:'s neofolk past with a true Americana sound and a Southern gothic atmosphere.
Guests on the album include Okoi Thierry Jones (Bölzer), Perikis Tikof (Opened Paradise), Ioanna Noir Zacharopoulou (Glitter Grotesque) and Vasso Jism. Link
