Tjolgtjar - Halloween (2007)


Previously on OPIUM HUM:

Another record I've been wanting to post for years, but forgetting every time October comes around. So basically, it's a raw black metal album based on the Halloween movies that pretty concisely summarizes what I want out of music this time of year. Few recordings bring me more joy than their cover of the Silver Shamrock ad jingle from Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

Note: This is available on their bandcamp with a severely tweaked track list, so by all means go get that, but the download link is with the original order.

Track listing:
1. Night of the Living Dead
2. Judith Myers
3. Mask of Michael Myers
4. The Myers House
5. Laurie Strode
6. The Night He Came Home
7. The Blackest Eyes
8. The Haddonfield Babysitter Murders
9. The Shape
10. Silver Shamrock

  1. D_S this one is great fun & it shreds, thank you for this! Also love adding another album to my october/halloween soundtracks, some of which are year-round necessities, the most obvious perhaps being all things Misfits/Samhain (esp November Coming Fire) but the list is long & a genre-stew ;)
