Return of The Greatest Zombie Mix You Ever Will Hear

i've noticed a lot of traffic to the previous Greatest Zombie Mixes lately, and seeing as it's already October, i reckon it's time for an update. Time to get that Halloween groove on, kids, so here we go.

Last time we spoke with Que Lastima, they promised to put together an opus detailing zombies in space. Well, i thought they were just blowing smoke, but clearly this is a band that does not fuck around. That's right, kids, a zombie in space concept album.



A few folks pointed out the last time around that the Greatest Zombie Mix ever would have to include the Misfits. Never let it be said i don't listen to you, the unwashed masses. Now go bathe.


Need a little spasticity in your zombie mix? We've got that covered, too.


Sure, Que Lastima's effort is sweet, but you simply can't sleep without another zombie concept album in your collection? Well, look no further.



Last year, we introduced y'all to Zombie Girl with her religious premise, "Jesus Was a Zombie." Well, it was so good, i thought we all needed some more.


While we're on the topic of incorporating the undead into Christianity, how about a little Christmas with your brain eaters? And let's punk it up, while we're at it.


OK, that was a pantsful, so let's bring it down a notch with some indie sounding goodness.


Dude, i imagine you're asking, where the hell is the death metal? Dude, chill out.

And now, more punk.


Alright, i believe that's enough for now, as i'm at that point where i could overload this one or have enough left over for one more brain-chomping update. Of course, that means at least one more Greatest Zombie Mix update before Halloween.

You lucky, lucky bastards.

Video Vixens: The Monster Mash

Halloween is without question my favorite of all holidays. What can I say, I dig dressing up. I'll be donning my new stewardess costume this year (sadly not at the Black Angels/Roky Erickson shows), and so in celebration of this joyous holiday I have decided to post some thematic videos for your enjoyment.

First up, perhaps the most ubiquitous of all Halloween tunes: "The Monster Mash", given to us by Boris Pickett & the Crypt kickers many moons ago. Below we have the original version (as given video form in a DIY clip from the 70s), Gary Glitter's...interesting...version of the song, the classic Misfits' cover, and a cover of the song by a band I simply couldn't resist, because a) I love excruciatingly loud music and b) the band in question is called the Electric Fuck Pirates. How could I resist?

I don't know about you, but for me this is the most wonderful time of the year...
