| Post subject: | Bands That Lean Toward Horror |
Looking to compile a list of bands that have clear ties to the horror genre. Bands like White Zombie/Rob Zombie, Ghoultown, Nekromantix, Insane Clown Posse, etc. NOT looking for bands with names like Goatcuntfuck and Angel Cum that write about so-called "horrific" stuff. I'm also interested in musicians that have branched out into the horror genre. Again, cats like Rob Zombie, Henry Rollins, Dee Snider, and so on. Post 'em up!

Is it good enough that Iced Earth wrote an album about classic horror stories? |

Fantomas-The Director's Cut (in case you haven't heard this don't be put off by what the rest of their output sounds like... this is different). There's lots more but my dinner is ready... |

Yes... Alice Cooper for other obvious one. |

Calabrese Check out Vampires don't exist... Pretty Misfits-inspired. Cool band nonetheless. |

Doesn't matter what style of music. And yeah, the obvious ones are easy. It's the getting beyond that when it gets tough. For instance, a couple dudes from novAct are doing this project called The Comeback (http://www.myspace.com/thecomebackgroup). Quote: "The Comeback" is Kevin Storm's ambitious concept album/ graphic Novel, projecting a dark setting on all your senses, by combining the gloomy visions of the artwork with the diverse sounds of the album.
Recordings have already started at Excess Studios, Rotterdam under the guidance of Hans Pieters and the project is sponsored by Bo~El Guitars, Intune Guitar Picks, Patsticks drumsupplies and Excess Studios. Guest musicians for this album are; Drums; Koen Herfst/Sander Zoer/Martijn Peters lead guitar; Sander Gommans,Danny Tunker, Koen Romeijn, Eric Hazebroek Vocals:Sander v/d Thillart, Eddy Borremans , Floortje Donia Bass; Patrick Velis, Douwe de Wilde, Hans Pieters Looks and sounds cool. And this is the sort of thing I'd like bring under the spotlight in our issues of Shock Totem. We'll interview the Rob Zombies and Alice Coopers (hopefully, anyway), but I'd like to showcase some lesser-known talents as well. |

I'm also interested in musicians that have branched out into the horror genre. Again, cats like Rob Zombie, Henry Rollins, Dee Snider, and so on. Post 'em up! Er, wait, so you want posey Nu-Metal stuff rather than bands that create an atmosphere of horror? Because if you want the latter, there are plenty of picks: The Axis Of Perdition, Portal, Aborted, Obituary, Autopsy, Cannibal Corpse, Coffins, Corpsing, Defeated Sanity, Demilich... there are loads. Atmosphere > image. |

Yeah, when it comes to this I always think of The Axis of Perdition and Blut Aus Nord-types. |

Atmosphere > image. Fat white people singing about eating intestines and Satan is not what I want. There needs to be a tie-in with the horror genre, as in the literary horror genre, old movies and books and such. Life of Agony musically has nothing to do with horror, but Wire Hangers, bassist Alan Robert's horror comic does. Henry Rollins and Dee Snider has no connection musically, however both have done horror movies. Dee did that Halloween instrumental disc, though. Rob Zombie, of course, has music, comics, and movie tie-ins. Iced Earth have the Horror Show album. Force of Evil has their two albums which largely focus on horror movies/books. These are the sort of things we're looking for. |

What was his name... The guy Cooper was inspired by? Screaming Jay Hawkins. I think. |

Certainly more to do with horror (as in, music that horrifies) that Dee Snider, ffs. |
