Faith & The Muse es un grupo cuya característica es la composición musical con un sentido dramático del romanticismo dentro de composición darkwave. Integrado por Monica Richards y William Faith, componen un tipo de melodía gótica tipo isabelina y con matices victorianos, involucrándose con ritmos de rock and roll, ambos fueron integrantes de varias bandas previas a la formación de Faith & the Muse.

Su tercer álbum, Evidence of Heaven, es la representación de un libro de historias llenas de romanticismo obscuro y naturaleza arcáica.


Faith & the Muse showcase a bittersweet musical composure and a dramatic sense of romanticism within darkwave compositions. Monica Richards and William Faith, the duo behind the gothic Elizabethan melodies and Victorian soundscapes, involved themselves in dark rock & roll early on, playing in various bands and creating musical chaos before the ethereal mystery of the Faith & the Muse.

Third album of their career, Evidence of Heaven, is a heavy storybook of dark romanticism, archaic in nature, mold the illustrious theatrics found on Evidence of Heaven. Faith's guitar work is scalding, fiercely driven over Richard's haunting vocalics. Sonically, the band's demeanor is roughcast around dripping poetics, specifically on "Scars Flown Proud." This particular cut is raging with the fear of fear, but also welcoming the beginning of the next life. It's eerie in the manner that Richards' confident lyrics build momentum, making such complexities apparent for the remaining songs on the album.
