This Halloween season we go beyond our usual servings of ghost, zombie, vampire, and werewolf themes to deliver a chilling rogue’s gallery of real-world human savagery in metal songs. Listen as Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, Venom, Melvins, Testament, Suffocation, Bloodbath, the Black Dahlia Murder and others face the hell of human depravity in the rotten minds of Richard Ramirez, Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, Jim Jones, and others. Lock your doors—and know your Roots!
Experience the horror sounds of the Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig as seen from inside the bands in Eerie Von’s visual masterpiece MISERY OBSCURA: The Photography of Eerie Von (1981–2009).
