On A Dark & Barren Land

by The Angelus

supported by

Hellride Music The Angelus always make me think of fallow fields, the Old Testament, Steinbeck and old time Christian revivals. They're a shining example of the New School of American Gothic music. Really a unique and extraordinary band making extraordinary music.

about

The Angelus Dallas, Texas
