This Week's Playlist #43 - The Halloween edition
Week #43 - The Halloween edition
TL;DR: I'm running a weekly newsletter with 5 songs and a short description, and a matching Spotify playlist if you want to subscribe.
For the non-Spotify readers, there is a Youtube link for each of the songs on the cover.
Week 42!
Another (easy) seasonal playlist for this week, with 5 gloomy/spooky songs for your Halloween playlist.
Killing Joke - The Death & Resurrection Show
One of Killing Joke's best and creepiest songs. Killing Joke are one of UK key (albeit underrated) industrial / post punk bands.
Diamanda Galás - Gloomy Sunday
Diamanda Galas is a one-of-a-kind avant-garde vocalist. She is widely known for her wailing, four-octave vocal range and sings about the darkness of the human experience: insanity, murder, genocide and despair. The perfect Halloween vibe :-)
This is her rendition of the popular Hungarian song Gloomy Sunday.
Tom Waits - Goin' Out West
Another classic from Tom Waits. His dark and tortured voice also matches the Halloween vibe.
Goblin - Tenebre
Tenebre is the soundtrack to Dario Argento's horror/supernatural film of the same title.
Justice - Planisphere Pt 1
The French duo (who got famous by sampling Tenebre song from above) recently released Planisphere, the mix they composed for a Dior fashing show in 2008.
Until the next time, Godspeed!
