Heathen Apostles
Los Angeles outfit mining a gothic Americana seam — Mather Louth's vocals over upright bass and strings, murder-ballad tradition played with a theatrical streak.
Heathen Apostles are a Los Angeles group formed in 2013, working in a gothic Americana idiom that draws on murder ballads, old-time country and post-punk. Mather Louth sings, backed by an arrangement built around upright bass, strings and guitar rather than a conventional rock lineup. The result sits somewhere between darkwave and dust-bowl folk, delivered with a deliberately theatrical presentation — period costume, dramatic staging — that matches the material's Gothic-western subject matter.
