Happy Halloween, everybody! With the glorious night finally upon us, I present to you with my Halloween Playlist!
The final two songs are ones that need little introduction- Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath) and Skulls (Misfits). Black Sabbath, with its unmistakable tritone and lumbering sense of impending doom is THE song that created the idea of "scary music". Shortly thereafter Glenn Danzig and his Misfits (in their original, and most iconic incarnation) took the idea of "shock rock" to its ultimate limits by delivering ridiculous B-horror lyrics with an anachronistic croon over the top of relentless hardcore punk rhythms. These two bands are the very embodiment of Halloween music, and the perfect finishing touches to my playlist.
