I think Goofle11 put it best in his RYM review (that's right, I creep on people's profiles, also I'll be paraphrasing as RYM appears to be down)
"It sounds like an album Leonard Cohen would record in a haunted house"
Lonesome Wyatt is one of the members of the band Those Poor Bastards which generally falls under the Gothic Country moniker. Think of it as like a lo-fi version of country where the subject matter usually involves murder, addiction, and sin, although that's hardly an all encompassing definition, but it definitely describes Lonesome Wyatt's take on the genre.
