Music Challenge Interruption: A Halloween Recommendation!

Hey readers! It's almost Halloween, which means if you haven't already had one early, you've probably got a Halloween party coming up. Or, you plan to do nothing & stay in, either enjoying some quality alone time or some time with loved ones. Either way, you're going to need some good tunes to put you in the mood for this spooky occasion, & if there's one band I recommend, it's these guys:


(Image isn't mine)

Erik X (left) & Curtis RX (right) form the horror band 'Creature Feature', a band I came to hear of thanks to a site called 'Mooky Chick'. The article on there (which still exists) gave a good review, stating that their music was a "combination of rock, Goth and horror movies" & then went on to list the themes across all of the songs. I thought they seemed interesting & gave them a listen, & I'm very glad I did! Their music is great, perfect for the Halloween season!

They have two albums- 'The Greatest Show On Unearthed' & 'It Was A Dark & Stormy Night' along with a few singles, & their music has a very quirky sound, a bit like the music from an old Gameboy game mixed with rock. Combine these with lyrics on themes of the paranormal & spooky, but in a humourus way, & you have the brilliance of this band!

Another thing to mention is Curtis RX's solo project 'Rufus Rex'. Similar music to Creature Feature & equally as brilliant!


So before Hallow's Eve approaches, I suggest you give these guys a listen. And if you're anything like me, you'll be listening to them all year round!

Thanks for reading, will be back on Friday with my final Halloween themed post, & I'm really going to nail this one!
