Halloween Metal Monday V
9 years ago
Commission Info coming soon....
Happy Halloween everyone! It is now time to raise some Hell like most of everyone did on Friday. Lastly, the last journal for the Halloween season for one more batch of Halloween Horror themed metal music.
BONUS! Helloween - Halloween
Just the one song of all the fun stuff that happens on Halloween. There is a music video but the song is shortened.
Acid Witch (Detroit, US)
"Step this way,lovers of the loathsome.." says the nasty warty-faced witch as she lures you into her cave of lurking shadows and demonic dablings. She has broiled up a beastly brew into her caudron which gives you what you will experience by not listening, but feeling deathly doom. Listen well to the incantational lyrics and imagery that glorifies the love for horror movies, comics, marijuana, witches, and best of all, Halloween. Lose you mind on Witchtanic Hellucinations really is on full focus of various ugly witches and their lair on the Halloween holiday. Get stoned to the grave on satanic pot, horror flicks, Halloween and candy on Stoned. Speaking of Horror films, have it with Midnight Movies that covers songs from four horror flicks (Three I mentioned in the previous journals).
Ghoul (California, US)
Surfs up, Morons! These skateboarding Maniaxe have risen from their tombs of Creepsylvania to wreck havoc onto this pathetic world with their tunes! They shout and growl morbid tales about the crafty Creamator, the festering Fermentor, the deviant Digestor, the discusting Dissector, the torturous torturer, the krushing killbot, the sleaziest sewer chewer, and.. well, you get the idea. Lyrics of splatter chunky gores, cobwebbed tombs crawling with pissed off zombies, mad scientist seeking to stop ghoul, franken monsters, freaks, geeks, fiends and so many others!
Their lyrics are loud and clear of who they are:
"We are the things that go bump in the night
We are the shamblers that scurry from sight
We are bloodthirsty and graveyards we rule
We'll pick your bones clean because we are Ghoul"
~Graveyard Mosh/Ghoul track
As of recent, Ghoul is back with their new album Dungeon Bastards, and it's a total Halloween Head Banger! Be a Numbskull and listen to these bastards!
The Lurking Corpses (Indiana, US)
Like Misfits? Want more metal? The Lurking Corpses gotcha covered! Creepy tales they have for you that is full on love letter to horror movies they love. Be it a horny mummy, the undead calling out, mad scientist making monsterous monsters, legends of the Werewolf Queen, Satanic rituals and sacrifices, a love song for Lady Frankenstien, spooky ghosts, sinister inquisitors, heart throb maniacs, and many more that will have you either head banging or swinging your hips. (Listen, Listen,Listen, Listen, Listen).
Misfits (New Jersey, US)
Well, not certainly metal, but they have created a legacy of future metal bands of having horror movie themed lyrics. Majority of them b through z horror and sci-fi flicks. First have being Danzig times of just being horror punk, from teenagers from outer space and marylin monroe murders to a 20 eye-fiend and graveyard ghouls. While he split with them long ago with two more horror band projects Danzig and Samhain, graves comes into fill the void briefly to give more on American Psycho and Famous Monster album. Maniacs, monsters, and aliens like always. Then, Jerry Only fills in through out the rest of their career for more monsters and devil-themed lyrics. As of this year, Danzig has reunited with Misfits, how long would that last? well, let's just sit back and watch. (Listen, Listen)
Halloween (Detroit, US)
"Our message is easy to understand Don´t metal with evil!!" Warns the backwards message on Don't Metal With Evil song from the Album of the same name. The 80s really needed a heavy metal band that shows how prideful it is to have Halloween. So the majority of their lyrics is all horror tales and Halloween. Hell! Their music video rules! Trick or Treat and What a Nice Place! Better than other music videos I have seen. It's been quiet most of the time, but they have released their albums sparingly over the 30 years, each still sticking with the Halloween theme.
Mercyful Fate/King Diamond (Denmark / Texas, US)
At last, the band that I hold for last. The greatest heavy metal band of not just Halloween season, but of all time. I admit, I was put off by the falsetto vocals. But over time, he began to grow on me to a point where he is now my Top 4 Mandatory Bands to listen to (Iron Maiden, Motorhead and Judas Priest). In the Mercyful Fate years, he sings his stories seperately in tracks. Stories of witches, satanism, ghostly horrors, and many other dark arts. King Diamond's albums are full concept tales in entirety. Most in King's point of view. A Married couple moved into a haunted house cursed by spirit of the unborn (Abigail), a child who discovers his grandmother has a sinister intent (Them) and later grown up to meet the horrors again (Conspiracy), a Man who is lured into a church by a shewolf that holds a morbid secret (House of God), a spirit of a murdered little girl haunts King at his house for his soul (Give Me Your Soul Please. Which has a Mercyful Fate flavour onto it!) and many more! Also, he announed as of October 2016, is going to be releasing a new Story for us in 2017! I can't wait!
Here! Have some music videos! Watch! Watch! Watch! Watch! Watch!
HALLOWEEN YOU ARE MY PRIDE!
Metal Movie: Trick or Treat (1987)
Heavy Metal, horror movies and Halloween go great together like peanut butter, chocolate and beer! This movie here has all three for you to chew on if you dig it. When a headbanging Misfit is often bullied at school, heavy metal is his only escape. But things take a turn when his favorite singer of a band, Sammi Curr, dies in a fire. He meets up with a DJ who is given the only recorded single of their song before they're death, not realizing the record itself holds a powerful evil that can unleashed when played more than a few times. Featuring Special guest of the film Ozzy Osbourne (as the Christian Televangelist) and Gene Simmons (as a Radio DJ). The soundtrack of a flick is a total headbanging rockin' tunes from the one and only Fastway! The album made for the movie!
That's it for this year! Sorry I did not have stack of movie choices like I have for the past three years. But next year, I will, probably both good and bad flicks. We'll see. Till then, have a fun Happy Halloween!
