Awesomeness Is Volatile
"Awesome" is a hazardous substance in fiction. Put too much of it together, and dangerous things can happen. Things will blow up, heads can explode/implode, or even the universe could end, all for no other reason than the awesomeness itself caused it.
Probably first created by the Rule of Funny, combined with the fact that explosions are, themselves, awesome (a sort of Transitive Property Of Awesomeness).
A Sub-Trope of Awesomeness Is a Force.
Compare Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot (making awesome by a combination of cool things),
Gothic Country Music
"Gothic Country" (also known as "Dark Country", "Southern Gothic" and "Gothic Americana") is a genre of Country Music characterized by its dark sound and lyrics. It is, in essence, a combination of Alternative Rock, Goth Rock, or Heavy Metal and Country Music.
It shares much in common with the Southern Gothic genre of fiction and many songs are inspired by works in that genre. Gothic Country songs feature the typical alcohol, murder, religious themes, family, and romance aspects of country meshed with darker topics like poverty, murder, and supernatural forces.
