A song I wanted to send to a Halloween spin-off or the normal BJSC contest but then there are better ones that show up x

 

 

This bangs

Horrorpunk, Goth, Deathrock and Psychobilly are your go to genres for shedloads of great tracks.

 

Start with The Misfits (who did the original Halloween that AFI covered), Bauhaus, 45 Grave and The Cramps respectively and work outwards from there

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you want more modern stuff check out Saint Agnes, Witch Fever, The Creepshow, Knife Bride, Fearless Vampire Killers, Twin Temple
