Saturday Matinee Pre-Halloween Edition – The Interrupters, Messer Chups, The Creepshow & Tom Waits
The Interrupters: Aimee Interrupter & the Bivona brothers sing an ode to a poor bony soul.
From St. Petersburg, Russia, Messer Chups is listed under vampire space zombie surf rock. “Messer” is German for “knife” and “Chups” is from Chupa Chups lollipops.
The Creepshow has been blasting psychopunkabilly for a while. Zombies Ate Her Brain was from their debut album, Sell Your Soul (2006).
Who needs Halloween music when you got Tom Waits with his Olds 88 and the devil on a leash.
Been a busy week taking care of busy-ness and dodging busybodies. Tomorrow we’ll porch. See you at the crack of noon.
