Halloween has always been my favorite holiday, both for it's pagan combination of fear of death and respect for those of us who have gone on before, and also for how this time of sacred contemplation has been turned into an orgy of candy consumption and sexy pizza costumes. To appropriately honor, at least in my own mind, such a melange of the terrifying and the trite, I present a very special FO&S, a list of my favorite spooky songs, perfect for your Halloween Punk Party: 1. A song celebrating the rare meeting of Judaism and Halloween:
2. Continuing on a werewolf theme, the best 80s song about ordering Chinese food while being a rampaging hell beast:
3. This particular track is a must, if only because I had every Egon Spengler action figure growing up
4. Moving away from pop for a moment, something in a more folky vein about a local legend near my old homestead.
5. And finally, what Halloween play list complete without a little Timewarp?
