Comment:

Today's alt-country artists tackle the big themes .... Jesus & Satan. Redemption & damnation. Lust, murder & insanity. Chilling, creepy imagery, both lyrically and aural. Maybe what you'd get if William Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor were reincarnated as a song-writing team.

Yeah , what greaseball said. I do know that Gillian Welch's voice can take you straight to the cemetary.
