      He was . In fact , The Damned shared bills with Sutch , and , early on , carried his coffin on stage. If you've ever seen the "Blood on The Cats " , I think it is (W/ Meteors , Sting Rays , Milkshakes , Jazz Butcher , etc.) video , there's A little footage of Sensible and Sutch onstage , together.

      Yeah, I'm pretty sure Dave Vanian, of The Damned was a fan of Screaming Lord Sutch.

      The Moon-Rays - self-proclaimed halloween band and spot-on spooky!

      I was born in October and it is my favorite month and Halloween, holiday, and love how it can tie into 60s garage.  Very stoked to see the Halloween Podcast recommendations next, but wanted to check back on this string.  Was surprised to see that The Moon-Rays arent on this list. 

       

      you can check out samples here...

      Forbidden Dimension is one of my all-time favourites and the greatest band ever to have combined fuzz guitar with trashy horror themes.  Necromantix and all that stuff is 2nd rate (at best) cosplay... stick to the Meteors!!!

       

      Okay... while "greatest band ever" my be overstating things a bit, I can't understate the influence of Forbidden Dimension on my life and tatses in trash culture (I met my wife at a FD show). That being said, I have to admit that I have little interest in what they are doing these days. Seek out the early stuff, preferably the material with the drum machine.

      'Spook Rock' wise check out the 3D-Invisibles and Forbidden Dimension. It doesn't get any better. Tons of Psychobilly bands sing bout Horror stuff but the best imo are 80s Meteors and Demented Are Go(esp. the first 2 albums 'In Sickness and In Health' & 'Kicked Out Of Hell'). There are some nice 50s Rock'n'Roll 'Horror' compilations out on LP and CD like 'Monster Bop' and 'Rockin' Nightmares'. Great stuff worth tracking down!

      The Moontrekkers- Night of the Vampire.

      Its an Instrumental produced by Joe Meek. Has a sort of scary intro and outro and a organ sound in the middle which you could imagine dracula playing. Fantastic reverb through the track and some nice giutar.

      Yeah, the Zombeatles E.P is very cool... Dick Dale (of Kamikaze etc fame) gave me a copy... my favourite is the take on 'Rain', called of course 'Brains'... ha ha!

      Also...

      "The Go Go Haunters" from Queensland, Australia are wild! We play them regularly on our shows on 3D Radio here in Adelaide.... and they've played down here in South Australia a few times to ecstatic response... they've got a couple of singles/E.P.'s (plus groovy T-shirts!) and these are available from their site... check 'em out!

      Good ol' Aussie weirdness!!!
