      I was a huge fan of Black Sails in the Sunset Long before i even knew who Misfits were, which sounds crazy now, but because of my age, it just happened that way. I still love that album.

    The first Christian Death is amazing. Rikk Agnew! His style, the OC style like The Adolescents, D.I. influenced a lot of so cal bands of later years.

    One of the greatest Death-Rock albums to get anyone into the genre is this compilation called, Killed By Deathrock. Think they've made a few of those comps, but the first one is pure gold.

  • @chrisdeutsch4669
    @chrisdeutsch4669 Před 8 měsíci +15

    Excellent! I can attest that the Groovie Ghoulies were very important for punk in Sacramento and the larger, non-Bay Area, Nor Cal scenes. Particularly Kepi was always supporting bands and getting shows together and in general helping keep the music alive (or was it...undead).

    • @user-lb7td4um3q
      @user-lb7td4um3q Před 8 měsíci +1

    @prex4373 Před 8 měsíci +6

    Alien Sex Fiend for earlier UK stuff, Skinny Puppy for blatant industrial gore, GWAR is important, and the nerdiness of Ink & Dagger for 90's vampire hardcore. For recent sounds, Blu Anxxiety are fantastic! And Final Gasp are great for a recent Samhain kick as well. Otherwise, great vid there sir!

    Samhain is essential listening for any fan of Glenn Danzig. It’s the perfect bridge between Misfits and Danzig- not only chronologically but also in terms of seeing the metamorphosis of Glenn Danzig as an artist.

    Glenn Danzig reigns supreme when it comes to horror punk and I think this video proves it. Two of his bands are on this list not to mention offshoot bands like Son of Sam and other bands from Misfits members. Nobody does it better imo

  • @z6nestudio

    I've needed this video for soooo long! I am glad CZcams put it my way. I've been a fan of Wednesday 13 for a while already, and I have wanted ever since to check on more Horror Punk, but besides Misfits, never knew what direction to take (metalhead here). This is not only documental, but very pedagogical. Thank you so much! I'll be checking more of your content.

    A + in regards to your research for the T.S.O.L / 45 Grave Era.
    I was there for that and eventually gravitated to more gloom doom bands.
    Which led to following "industrial dance" , and as time carried me forward , eventually led me to Drum & Bass / Jungle.
    The constant search for HARDER and Faster beats.

    Insanely good video, encompassing everything there is about horror punk. I regularly listen to Allow Hallows EP and The Art of Drowning together. Also Wednesday 13, Murderdolls, Blitzkid and Calabrese and Argyle Goolsby from Blitzkid. The Son of Sam album with Davey Havok is also killer. I work at walmart and that sucks, but I'm in the back so I can wear one ear bud. All day I just bust my ass and listen to music the entire time.

  • @pryingeyes1551
    @pryingeyes1551 Před 2 měsíci +1

    I'm more into gothic rock, darkwave and industrial, but I love the Misfits. If you're going to mention the Jasons "Get Sued", you need to check out the biggest Misfits cover/parody band, The Misfats. They were literally the biggest.
    Their vocalist sounded a lot like Danzig, but the lyrics were changed to focus on the band's obesity. There was "Mommy, Can I Go Out and Grill Tonight", "20 Pies", "Butter" (Danzig's Mother), "Hungry Moments", "Diet, Diet, Diet, My Darling", etc. Some of their stuff is still on YT, but they will never get back together. They also won't restock merch, which is a shame, because their logo was a fat Crimson Ghost skull.

    When my band, Earth, Worm, &, Fire, morphed into a bar band in our 20's we still slipped in TSOL songs. I'm proud to say everybody thought they were originals because I delivered them so good. Nothing For You and Flowers By The Door were always in our setlist. I NEVER said we wrote these masterpieces but they became kind of our own. THANK YOU TSOL. I've made karaoke tracks to them I think.....

    Great video! Love this stuff. Saw Blitzkid last month. I wrote that band’s Wilipedia article, and also Mr. Monster’s and Cryptkeeper Five’s. Love the Groovie Ghoulies, ever since their 1991 cover of Pet Sematary. I got to see them back in the day, and they honored my request to play “punk part 2”, dedicated to the Ramones.
    One FANTASTIC artist that didn’t happen to be mentioned in the video is Nim Vind. Check him out if you don’t know. “Killing Saturday night”, “that girl” (fan video w/horror clips), “jack knife”, and “death defier” are great videos for an introduction. His stuff with Mr. Underhill (underground) and the Vincent Black Shadow (mainstream) also worth checking out.

  • @I-Ren-Zero
    @I-Ren-Zero Před 8 měsíci +1

    good overview of the genre.... just a few things....
    The Return of the Living Dead soundtrack is a pretty good road map of late 70s/early 80s Horror Punk with The Flesheaters representing the the 70s LA Punk scene, The Tallboys (an off shoot of The Meteors) giving listeners a taste of Psychobilly, Roky Erickson who brought the 60s Psych Rock to Punk fans... and the Jet Black Berries who started off as New Math and had an EP and LP of more 70s/Bowie/ Post Punk Horror sounds...
    The Forbidden Dimension from Calgary Canada have pretty much been the best Horror Garage Punk band since around 1991.....
    90s/ early 2000s Horror Punk bands that I think deserve more attention include..... Riot Squad/The Staggers from Texas, Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, The Coffinshakers, and Ghoultown... the last 2 of these are more Roots Rock/Country Horror Punk, but have enough punk in them to be listenable to Horror Punk fans.
    I would be remiss if I didn't point out that often Horror Punk from TSOL, to The Groovie Ghoulies and even The Misifits have used Horror Punk to comment on social ills, mental illness and especially being an outsider in your local culture...

    @willquigg8265 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Tsol was not a horror punk band. Jack the singer started his band vicious circle and that every party or show they played there was violence and cops were called so he started the true sounds of Liberty as a punk rock band. Jack likes to experiment with music. That is why his first album and his second album have a different feel but they are not a horror punk rock band. They are a punk rock band. I grew up with them, Ron and Jack are good friends of mine. Some of that live coverage of TSOL was taken at the Cuckoo's Nest. You can immediately know that by the clouds painted on the walls behind them playing. The back door is right there also.
