No, no and no ! All these suggestions simply don't fit the description of what our friend rynne is (was) looking for ><'
But you know what ? Six long years after this thread was started, I have the answer, yes that's right ;)

So, rynne if you're still there somewhere, you said you were looking for something that would sound like a Cormac McCarthy novel. Well, there it is, I invite you to check these two bands : 1) U.S. Christmas, their album "Eat the Low Dogs" (Their best IMO)

In addition, there's an interview of the guitarist/singer : http://nightseminar.blogspot.be/2009/09/interview-with-nathan-hall-u-s.html
Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian is mentioned ;)

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention the Nate Hall solo album "A Great River"

2) Across Tundras (T.G. Olson's band) : "Blood Meridian For Electric Drone Guitar" - an acid western musical interpretation of Cormac McCarthy's violent masterpiece. Check it out :

That's it, hope you'll find this interesting

Oh sweet, something I'm currently learning about.

I've got two suggestions for you, each on the opposite end of the spectrum.

One's Delta Rae - Bottom of the River: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bimam2j2gEg Heavy beat, soulful, conjures up that dark spirit image.

Schatzi and the String Boffin - Creek Don't Rise: https://soundcloud.com/schatziboffin/creek-dont-rise Bit more melodic, still kind of atmospheric but not quite as heavy a beat. Still pretty cool though, they played with Sam Bush for a bit.

Hope this helps!

Some of Ray Wylie Hubbard's stuff is pretty dark and spooky.

He's kindof a fan of Edgar Allen Poe.
