New music thread - creepy Halloween songs


HappyCamper

Recommended Posts

Bauhaus (instead of the obvious song - "Stigmata Martyr" - Peter Murphy chanting in latin)

 

Aphex Twin - "Come to Daddy" (will scare kids)

 

Type O Negative (pretty much any of their songs - "Black Number One" is a good example)

 

Screaming Jay Hawkins "I put a spell on you"

 

The Doors - "Strange Days"

 

The Misfits - "Mommy, can I go out & kill tonight?" (Glen Danzig - creepy - oxymoron)

 

I am sure there are some really good ones that will come to me later that will show up on a nice Halloween mix. Wouldn't mind finding some good Robert Johnson tunes or other Delta bluesmen - heavy stuff from just a voice and a guitar.

pretty much anything from Nick Cave's Murder Ballads. well, pretty much anything from Nick Cave, period. "where the wild roses grow" anyone?

 

On the third day he took me to the river

He showed me the roses and we kissed

And the last thing I heard was a muttered word

As he knelt (stood smiling) above me with a rock in his fist

 

On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow

And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief

And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die"

And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth

I prefer the grittier Mr Cave:

 

"I'd crawl over a thousand pussies to get to one asshole"

 

Ah art.

 

Except he stole that from a blues singer from the 60's who performed under the name "Snatch and Poontangs", A.K.A. Johnny Otis.

And the original line is much ruder than that.

 

Unless I was confused and listening to a covers cd!

"Halloween" or any thing else by the Misfits (I know you already have on track on your list). IE "Last Caress" - I got something to say, I killed your baby today and it doesn't matter much to me as long as its dead. I got something to say, I raped your mother today and it doesn't matter much to me as long as she spread....

 

Iron Maiden - "Fear of the Dark" and many others

"Seven Souls" - WS Burroughs reading from his version of the Egyptian Book of the Dead, with spooky Bill Laswell music backing...

 

"You have to be in hell to see heaven."

"Desperation is the raw material of drastic change. Only those who are willing to forsake everything they have ever believed in can hope to escape."

"Are you going to cower in your physical body for eternity? Your body is a boat, to lay aside when you reach the far shore. It's full of holes, it's full of holes"

"Goo Goo Muck"

 

Oh when the sun goes down and the moon comes up

I turn into a teenage goo-goo muck

Yeah I cruise through the city and I roam the streets

Lookin for something that is nice to eat

You better duck, when I show up, the goo-goo muck.

 

I'm a night headhunter looking for some head

With a way-out body underneath that head

Yeah I'll get you baby with a little luck

Cuz I'm a teenage tiger and an goo-goo muck

You better duck, when I show up, the goo-goo muck.

 

[solo]

 

The city is a jungle and I'm a beast

I'm a teenage tiger looking for a feast

Yeah I wan't the most but I'll take the least

Cuz I'm a goo-goo muck tiger and a teenage beast

You better duck, when I show up, the goo-goo muck.

 

[goo-goo muck sounds]
