Inspired in equal parts by the western pulp of Louis L'Amour, the novels of Cormac McCarthy, and the twisted horror of Clive Barker, Godlessness is the fictional companion piece to Pagan Rhythms, the iconic debut album by Folsom's metallic hardcore brainchild, SpiritWorld.

Dedicated to the memory of, and edited in part by, Power Trip's Riley Gale, who died unexpectedly in 2020 at the age of thirty-four from the toxic effects of fentanyl, Godlessness was initially released as a limited-edition paperback, along with the initial now-collectible self-released pressing of Pagan Rhythms, and now available for the first time worldwide in hardcover, e-book, and audiobook.
