Well not all of his songs are horror related, but Alice Cooper has done his fair share of genre work. Easily my favourite.
Calabrese is a damn good band also IMO. The owe alot to The Misfits (who are a better band), but I still really enjoy theyre music.

Alice Cooper White Zombie (La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol. 1) and any creepy sounding garage band from the 50s or 60s |

although not 100% horror oriented (thank god) i love Blue Oyster Cult for the horror oriented songs they've done ..
Joan Crawford Has Risen From The Grave Godzilla Dont Fear The Reaper Black Blade (more heroic fantasy) lots more .. I personally think horror oriented bands are a one line joke ... they guys that dress up and everything they do and sing and say are all about horror. pathetically without depth, completely uninteresting after the initial exposure. |

gott a love "Surfin' Dead" from Return of the Living Dead.... Ah, my favorite brain soup - Cream of nowhere Ooh baby, your asphalt eater hung ten The hoedads and gremmies say you reached top end So do the dead, through the lights The surfin' dead, oooh make it tight The livin' dead now baby lose their heads Now baby, doin' the dead Yeah you're a high-rev hauler with all four on the floor But your a-bone's busted and you're through the door So do the dead, juice the Coupe Come on the livin' dead, ooh you're in the soup The livin' dead now baby, like I said now baby, do the dead Your carburetor don't carb, got a hammer down this Your generator gens but your pistons don't work Do the dead, run for ten The surfin dead, c'mon turn it in The livin' dead insist, it's the latest twist, do the dead Run run run run, now do it Stay sick! You square brains out there better beware Oh this phantom driver down in the ground You better plant 'em right or they'll come around Move out baby, move that mound Or they'll dig it up and they'll shut you down So c'mon, aw c'mon, aw c'mon . . . Now life is short and it's filled with stuff So let me know baby when you've had enough Oh do the dead, turn blue Yeah the surfin' dead, as dead as you There's nothing on the radio when you're dead There's nothing at the movie show when you're dead There's nowhere left for you to go when you're dead Do the dead, yeah do the dead Do the dead, surfin' dead "Your generator gens but your pistons don't..........work" makes me laugh every time .. |

Have you seen The Stand, Urge? I would assume that you have....great use of that song. I didnt bother to watch the whole thing, but that opening scene was awesome.

it doesnt just mention the reaper - it is all about the reaper ... death ..etc between the mood of the song and the lyrics .. i'd say it fits in with the horror deal . Dontīt Fear (the Reaper) by Blue Oyster Cult All our times have come Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness) Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear that she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew and then disappeared The curtains flew and then he appeared (saying don't be afraid) Come on baby (and she had no fear) And she ran to him (then they started to fly) They looked backwards and said goodbye (she had become like they are) She had taken his hand (she had become like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) |
