On October 27th, Denver, Colorado's Wayfarer will release their fifth full-length, American Gothic, via Profound Lore (USA)//Century Media Records (EU). For a first preview of their unique blend of black metal, gothic country, and Americana, the debut single - "False Constellation" - can be heard now at: https://linktr.ee/americangothic; the video (created by Frank Guerra) can be seen at:
Wayfarer is the pre-eminent Western American Metal band. Comprised of four black clad players from Denver, Colorado, the band creates a thunderous and uniquely American genre of metal all to their own.
After ten years of existence, the band presents American Gothic - a defining statement of Western heavy music that explores the dark soul of the nation itself. This time working alongside accomplished producer Arthur Rizk (Eternal Champion, Kreator), the band brings an aggressive and expansive vision to life in a new full-length LP.
Led by powerful riffing, bleak melodic sensibilities, and pointed songwriting, this record serves as a funeral for the American dream. Caked in dust, and buried deep in blood and gunpowder, it paints a brutal and beautiful portrait, and sees Wayfarer elevate their unique and genuine brand of metal to new heights.
"What we have now is a world full of oil drillers, and railroad barons. Cattle thieves and company men.
This is the new American Gothic."
