This song is what sealed the deal for me getting into the podcast, and I don't regret following it.
Welcome to the family. ;)
100% The theme music is so amazing. Love the whole show though.
I walk these hills
leave these dark valleys
where I can't stay now
in the lands unknown
And in these hills
that I've walked so often
I can feel the winds now
hold your ghost
And I sail my boat
across these waters
to steel my soul
For now I walk these roads alone
And my soul now will sink
beneath these waters
so dark and cold
for on this road I'll die alone
It could also be “steel my soul”
Thank you so much.
@@runawaygemm5397 @RunawayGemm Oooh, I really think that works better. Did I mistype or misinterpret? Cuz you are so right. THANK YOU! :D
Notes: I had "steal my soul" originally. Edited to "steel my soul".
Nerd Postscript: "Steal" might actually work for this show. I'm not just "well, actually"-ing my initial misspelling of the word. ;p After your comment, I edited my original lyrics post. Then my nerd brain kicked in. When living in a world where souls are real and a commodity, stealing your own back from some weirdness and sailing away across deep running water fits a lot of fantasy/horror/fairy-tale lore. Even if you have to bury yourself/soul under the sea, at least you'll be free of the brutal existential horrors (hopefully)!
Anyway, thanks for "steel". I still think it fits better, despite my nerd tangent. ^__^
@@h3llo0cto no problem my guy
Sorry to throw something else in, but it could also be "still my soul," In this case, "still" means "ease, comfort, calm" my soul.
Back when I lived in Madison County, I'd do my rituals out in the back pasture... this song captures that memory so poignantly. I miss the tall grasses and king snakes. Especially the coyotes yipping at the edges of the fence at midnight.
This song gives me chills every episode and they don't stop until the end of the closing track.
As cold as dark mines deep in the Earth, yet it warms the blood like a lullaby. My black soul needed its caressing call before venturing to sinister places bearing names the wind forgot long ago.
Two years later, I still get chills when I hear this song.
Love ya'll!
The BEST intro theme. Double Drop D tuning perhaps? It has a rich darkness to it, a haunting, eerie beauty.
Sounds like it. Landon Blood has a youtube channel he's active on if you want to ask him yourself
sounds like dadgad to me
@@oliveward4892 Based on how low that opening note is. I think it's Drop C
Great song. Fits the tone of the show perfectly
This song is amazing, it struck a real chord with me. It reminds me of the music of my childhood, stuff we'd listen to on the long car ride to see family in the Smokey Mountains
My Dad's from Tennessee, and he really likes this show - says y'all have the, I guess, Appalachia vibe down very well
Listening from Nelson County, Ky. I love this song so much.
This podcast got me through the entire autumn of 2021
I love OGoA and there original theme song, I appreciate the newer song but this 1st theme slaps and it's not on Spotify so I can listen to it while I work😢 Can't wait for the next episode, Love this🤘🏼🖖🏼
I love this song…can’t stop playing it!
Love your show and this song! Thank you from San Francisco
Amazing show and theme song!
Thanks for uploading :) I will put this in my playlist
Wheres the version that was in the podcast? I promise this would blow up if you released it!! I'd follow you for sure and share the stage. Love it!
Hopefully these old gods will fill the void in my heart left by the fear entities from Magnus Archives.
I hope this gets released on Apple Music or google play.
Chills just from the song.
I’d love to know the tabs for this on guitar so I can play along 👌🏼
Yes tabs would be much appreciated
I'd like a banjo roll too
Drop c tuning basic chords my dude

Kinda hard to write tabs on the description but I played as clean as I could that's the gist of it, enjoy
Has anyone ever noticed the similarities between this song and "You'll never leave Harlan alive"? Or is it just me?
Deserves millions of views not gonna lie
We have over 5 million downloads on podcasting platforms.
This theme is so badass
Ya'll doing Gods' work here...
Maybe so, but *which* God's work?
It's best not to ask.
That’s why I used the plural 🙂
@@msk5410 If you were using plural you would've put the apostrophe after the s
PERFECT INTRO
PERFECT PODCAST
Does Landon Blood have any other songs/music. Really trying to find music like this.
Sadly we've yet to convince Landon to record more acoustic stuff. I would recommend anything by Darrell Scott (Especially "Never Left Harlan Alive") . Anything by Murder By Death (Especially Brother). Of course I always recommend our family in Blood on the Harp (especially 1692 and Build Mama a Coffin)
You may like Goodnight Texas
There's a guy here on youtube, Justin Johnson. He does a lot of incredible guitar music. Acoustic, electric... shovel (no really).
@@steveshell75 I wish they had sheet music somewhere
If it's for the quiet spooky vibe, i also recommend Zeal & Ardour. Some of their songs are just as chilling as this
I made this my ringtone.
If there was ever a song to usher me out of this valley, it sure might be this one. Illinois ain't far from y'all.
I feel like a devil's Train by the lab rats would fit perfectly with old gods of Appalachia specifically the railroad man
what genre is the music, if i wanted to find more like it. never have i been to America, but the sound is beautiful
I imagine this is what Silver John (from the stories by Manly Wade Wellman) sounded like.
I love this, what genre of music is this?
Southern Gothic, Dark Country, Spooky Country.
@@OldGodsofAppalachia Thank you for the reply! Much appreciated!
Does this man sing anything else? Having trouble finding him. I'd love to listen to more of his music.
We hope to have a full musical release from Brother Landon in the very near future.
will you ever be putting this on spotify? please
Do we gotta make a forsaken deal with the dark ones to get this on Spotify? I need this on my playlist.
The artist, Landon Blood, isn’t on Spotify and, as we understand it, doesn’t want to be at this time. Google up how well Spotify pays artists and you can understand why. You can get it from our Bandcamp if you like.
Is the full closing theme available anywhere?
You can find the song "I Cannot Escape The Darkness" by Those Poor Bastards on Spotify
What is the genre of this music? I want to find more songs like this.
Some would say dark country, Gothic country maybe? You can check that artist like Blood on the harp, those poor bastards, amigo the devil and that should point you in the right direction
I gotta know the full lyrics to this, can't find them and can't quite hear them in this
Transcripts of each episode, including music, are available on our website.
Are the lyrics available somewhere?
I don't know if these are exactly right, but I gave it a shot:
Now all these hills, leave these dark valleys
Where I can’t stay now in the lands unknown
In these hills, that I now walk so often
I can feel the winds now on your ghost
And I sail my boat across these waters to steal my soul
For now I walk these roads alone
And that soul will now sink beneath these waters, dark and cold
For on this road I’ll die alone
@@bekbowen8671 other than the last bit being "so dark and cold", and I think the first bit is "I walk these hills" (not sure on that last one), sounds to me like you have them exactly right.
Why is this not on Landon Bloods channel?
We don’t run Landon’s channel, family.
Weird not hearing this song at 1.2 speed
Any guitar players here know what tuning he’s using? I can’t find any good chord transcriptions or tabs for the song and I’m having trouble doing it just by ear 😭
You could watch brother Landon play it live on the Thicker Than Rainwater Live special
@@OldGodsofAppalachia Thanks, family! I couldn’t love the podcast more if I tried ❤️
Is this the same Landon Blood who did the vocals for Doyle's Gorgeous Frankenstein?
If that band is from somewhere in Texas or Louisiana probably so
Anyone know what guitar tuning he's using here? It's too low to be standard or Drop D
I've been noodling around with it and CGCGCC seems to work well
is the song by itself available on spotify?
No.
Lyndon or Landon?
Landon. The A is upside down in several of the words.
I want to like this song so much but on the other hand it seems like a crime to like it as its at 999 for likes
I wanna kiss this song with tongue
Is this gothic country?
So its not land and blood?
No, it’s not. As written, the artist’s name is Landon Blood. And no, that isn’t a stage name.
I was just joshin. Kind of. I thought it was land and blood, and i agree landon isnt a strange name sounds pretty cool. Hey thanks for responding to my dumb lil comment.
That’d actual be a sick band name tho
