RELIVE THE HORROR

After last month's relative dearth of new surf releases, sure enough October picked up the pace, accelerating towards Halloween day. And sure enough there were a ton of releases on that day. Stop doing that. Anyway, shall we unwrap some leftover Halloween candy?

BLOOD STREAM

It's a terrible tradition that needs to be stopped! I need your ghoulish voices for the Hollereen Show on October 25th! For the past few years I've had listeners call in to the FRIGHT LINE and record death threats, spooky noises, werewolf snarls, and occasionally cute kids.. You can still do that! The number to call is (504) 222-2595. That's a google voice line that only exists for you to leave a terrifying message that I'll play between songs, nobody will pick up.

The Noskons - The Hunt (Surf From the Crypt)
the dynotones - night of the ghouls (beach party a-go-go)
x-ray cat trio - surfing sasquatch (out for blood)
blackball bandits - The Flyin' Pumpkin (spooky tales and scary noises)

This is the second Messer Chups LP this year and much like The Incredible Crocotiger it's been hard to find. They made a post on facebook saying it's out and didn't respond to the masses asking "where?".

Ideally I would have discovered this before Halloween but Hella Vader likes to date all their releases to 1964 in Bandcamp so it passed me by. But if you want to turn back the clock a week, this should be pretty excellent listening. Hella Vader is never really straightforward, but this is one long cut-up of previous songs and new ones and general guitar weirdness that definitely would have weirded the kids out when they knocked on the door.

Once a year I get to do one of my absolute favorite shows. A playlist doesn't do it justice, make sure to tune in next year to get the full effect

wjlp - johann sebastian bunsen burner (johann sebastian bunsen burner (in D minor))
os brutus - jacques o monstro (cidade suja desastrada)
dr t and the undertakers - undertakers theme (party party party)
the crossfires - dr jekyl and mr hyde (out of control)
