Annoying '90s Irish rock gods Ash at Shiiine On.

Also pictured the Dartagnan to our Sonic Musketeers @andygee73.bsky.social .. often mentioned seldom heard.

Ah, Halloween, the day before All Saints Day - co-opted by the early Christians from the pagan festival of Samhain.
This is the ideal song for this Frankenstein Festival pieced together from lots of ideas from different times and cultures.

Classic track from over half a century ago, if you prefer your witches to be a little less Wiccan/folksy and a little more sinister/rocky, there's a '90s goth cover in the comments.

Avoiding Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus, instead I've gone for the Iggy/Bowie penned Fun Time by virtue of the Dracula reference. Covered twice by Pete Murphy, this one is 'in cabaret' ie lamps on tables and cigarette smoke. So cool.

Perfect opportunity to rep The Damned, not that I need one tbh. This track features the bass playing of (again) current member Paul Gray, what a sound!

Massively underrated Bowie LP in my opinion. Showcases why he was THE iconic artist of the 20th/21st century. He never stopped reinventing who he was, nor should any artist.

Almost missed today which would have (not would of) been a shame as this is a grammatically correct delightful pop song about eating people..

Day three and we couldn't avoid Nick Cave, why would we want to? If there's a better song about a teenage serial killer, I've not heard it..
