It’s that time of year again, the leaves have changed color, it’s getting colder, the winter is creeping in on us, and yes there will be drunken Halloween parties. Being the generous individual that I am I am going to share with you my custom Halloween mix of 2008. So dress up as Joe the Plumber, Sarah Palin, a French Maid with a breezy chemisier, or just as a sorority girl in her underwear and enjoy the tunes that I have compiled for this Halloween season. After all, you’re the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.

With the month of October less than a day away I couldn’t think of a better album to be listening to to get into a suitably goth mood. the Berlin California trio might as well be from Germany circa 1982 for all of their industrial goth glory. They sound like Todd Fink of The Faint, Ian Curtis of Joy Division, and Danny Elfman of Oingo Boingo joined together to create a goth supergroup produced by Skinny Puppy.
Seriously, I can’t stress the authentic goth feel enough. Someone get me a cape and some plastic fangs. Fans of She Wants Revenge will find a lot to like here. Including, straight ahead synths, deadpan vocals, an off kilter, yet foreboding atmosphere, and, yes, even some playful horns.

Mt Sims – Dig it In
Mt Sims – The Bitten Bite Back
