Wayfarer

RIDERS OF THE SETTING SUN is Gothic Americana. The Colorado quartet flesh out the apocalyptic vision of their homeland even further, having blazed a new trail through the world of extreme metal over the last decade, they ride into a new genre entirely with the new record, taking a huge leap into what the band was meant to become. Pulling threads from gothic and post-punk, folk, western and Americana as much as the dark sound Wayfarer cultivated themselves over the last several releases - RIDERS is genuine in its execution, and the most fully Wayfarer record to date. Producer Ben Chisholm (Chelsea Wolfe) ushers the band to dark new heights , with guest appearances from David Eugene Edwards (16 Horsepower , Wovenhand), Munly J Munly & Rebecca Vera (Munly & The Lee Lewis Harlots , Munly & The Lupercalians), Midwife and Kelly Schilling (Dreadnought) joining the ranks to add a fresh color to the albums tracks. Engineer James Barone (Beach House) and Mix Engineer Iver Sandoy (Enslaved) rounded out the team to bring the record to life, and begin the new chapter. Enter Gothic Americana.
