Don’t shoot the Pianist – (1st shot)
Gothic Americana, or if you prefer dark/death country, is a music genre that is described by the fusion of alternative rock and classic country/folk. Literally, it is country music performed in a more raw and dark way. Imposing performances, dark passages through stringed instruments, banjo, acoustic and electric guitars create a stifling atmosphere, yet one feels comfortable in there. The song topics often deal with poverty, criminal behavior, religious imagery, death, ghosts, family, lost love, alcohol, murder, devil, and treachery.
Intro by: Alexandros Motsikas
“Mobster”: Konstantinos Pamfiliss
