Halloween Hootenanny

Halloween Hootenanny

Editorial Reviews

You just need one look at Rob Zombie to know that the guy knows a thing or two about Halloween. He really proves his mettle--and his metal, for that matter--on this loud, garish, downright fun collection of rip-roaring devil's music. There's actually very little to be afraid of, to tell the truth--unless, that is, you have a phobia about the kind of goofy good times laid down by Zombie and pals like Rocket from the Crypt, Satan's Pilgrims, and the wrestling-masked power-surf combo Los Straitjackets (who turn in a hypercharged "Munsters Theme"). The garishly groovy package, which features some of Zombie's most over-the-top cartoon illustrations, is rife with haunting hoedowns like the Dead Elvi's "The Creature Stole My Surfboard." More fun than a coven meeting any day. --David Sprague

Ghoulish fun-eral for the ghouls and boils!.......2007-01-18

A fun collection of jaunty tunes for year-'round revery, in a "spook surf", martini-sipping sort of way. Amidst the undead 50's-style rockabilly, many of which are enhanced with sound effects, we hear from "Zacherie", a ghoulish host regailing the listener with haunted tales sure to add that certain spicy ingredient to the Witch's brew.

A GREAT ALBUM!!!!.......2006-10-23

I had this album when it first came out (years and years ago) and wore it out. But like many albums when I was a teen, it got lost. Now for some reason, my interest is peaked again and I have gotten another copy and I have a feeling it will be worn out too. Highlights for me are RFTC "I Drink Blood" and Southern Culture on the Skids "Werewolf". It's fun at this time of year to cruise around or just sit at home and enjoy some great Halloween-inspired music.

Voodoorific.......2006-09-12

I don't know why anyone hasn't talked about the best band and song on here, DEADBOLT's Psychic Voodoo Doll puts all the other songs on this album to shame. The whole album is good, but if you love DEADBOLT this is definatley a collectible..".you mess with me and you'll roast in the flames, ahhhh".

Great Halloween dance music.......2006-09-12

Bought this albumn for a Halloween party last year for kids aged 5 - 9. I was able to create a dance mix from many of the songs on this albumn. Much hipper music than Monster Mash, etc. Much more danceable than the Halloween New Wave albumn.

STAB STAB STAB DEATH DEATH DEATH ROCK ROCK ROCK SURF SURF SURF!.......2006-05-13

Every song on this CD is perfect to rock out on Halloween with.. BUT what I want to know is WHY and HOW did SURF music end up associated with HORROR and HALLOWEEN! I mean it started in the fifties with bands like BOBBY BORIS PICKET and the KRYPT KICKERS and THE BLOBS etc. but why?

Check out THE FAMOUS MONSTERS you'll love it if you like this CD.. it's SEAN YSEULT from WHITE ZOMBIE's surf band!
