One of the few Compilation albums that have songs that are just as great as the song before and after it. It's highly balanced and well put out. For a compilation it's incredibly well fleshed out. With 28 songs going on just about an hour and thirteen minutes you get a good feel of rockabilly toned garage rock punk music and some toned down noise acts that aren't harsh or inaccessible. A large majority of the songs borderline just 2 minutes and they give you a quick glimpse of different parts of the country as well as Mexico (it seems) and Italy (it seems) and all are put together for a Halloween theme as well. Even though most of the songs are not about spooky things or Halloween, the feel of them put together is entirely spooky though, think of a ghost town. The first song on the album, a really ghastly country type tune put together by Bloodshot Bill was made exclusively for this compilation. If you like Halloween, Garage type music, Rockabilly or want to hear what could very well be the best Halloween compilation from 2009, then check this out. You can find out more on the zine and order it here, it even includes a cool long track list page.
