Shock Rockers & Punk Monsters Halloween

Ahh, my favorite Halloween mix of the year. Don't expect the usual classics or anything remotely familiar. 18 tracks of experimental rock, horror rock & punk, rockabilly, and straight up hard rock (and no worries, there's nothing too harsh). The first track (Spectrex's "There's a Monster Loose") however is a funky, hip-hoppity, danceable ditty that's imo, a good mix opener.

Sematary Spawn's "Exorcism of the Dead" reminds me of a subtle Rob Zombie track, or similar. If you like Green Day, check out DieMonsterDie's "1000 Corpses Walk the Earth." Pop-punk fans should embrace The B Movie Monsters' "Mr. T vs. Dracula." Fans of modern Alice Cooper would probably enjoy Monster Mob's "Cannibal Girls." Fronkonstin's straight-up hard rocker "Scary You" is probably my fav.

The last track, Dracula and His Band The Draculas' "Swamp Thing (reprise)" a take on the classic, "Wild Thing" is a hoot. They're all worth a listen or three. Enjoy!
