Halloween Mixtape

[K]

I know we do this every year, but whatever. So I went through my CD collection and got out the ones that would be good for a Halloween party. They're below, unfortunately there are too many for a CD, and since it's not my party I'm not going to make a whole bunch as they probably have music sorted. So anyway, help me chop this down a bit into one discs-worth. What are must haves and what can I ditch? I realised halfway through the alphabet that the party is going to be mainly Indie chicks and Emo kids which is why there isn't any metal in the second half (Slipknot or Slayer) but plenty in the first (Children of Bodom)

So yeah, here goes.

Monster Mash and Thriller are staples, obviously. And I know the PM5K track is just an intro, but I thought it was a cool intro. Oh, and there's not much Misfits stuff because I'd get carried away if I started. Oh and Duke Lion is just funny.

Get Dragula, Superbeast, or Return of the Phantom Stranger by Rob Zombie on there!

[Summers]

I can't believe you didn't include Monster, Monster by Lordi.

Get Dragula, Superbeast, or Return of the Phantom Stranger by Rob Zombie on there!

Let's be honest.

Keith, just take a Rob Zombie album.

[K]

Feed My Frankenstein has Rob Zombie in, and the only Rob Zombie album I have is some Techno remix album.

[MalaCloudy Black]

That remix of This Is Halloween is awesome. <3

What about something off Misfits' Evilive? I know it's just a live album, but "We Are 138" with Henry Rollins doing backup vocals would be pimp on that mixtape.

Also, nontraditional but what about Johnny Cash's Thirteen or Delia's Gone?

I need to eliminate about five minutes to get it onto a CD.

Cloudy, there's no Danzig era Misfits because that stuff, although awesome, is a bit too punk for this crowd. The Graves era stuff is more rock so it will go over better.

[MalaCloudy Black]

Well how about those Cash songs? If they're too soft try Danzig's rerecording of Thirteen (since he wrote it for Cash anyway).

[Summers]

Zombie's remix album is awesome.

I'd take off the Sum 41, personally. But that's just me.

[K]

Zombie's remix album is awesome.

Is it really? (American Made Music) I've honestly never listened to it. I picked it up at a second hand CD store for peanuts, not realising it was a remix album so I've never bothered with it.

[EWFan2004]

You'll need to have "Riders on the Storm" on that tape somewhere just because it's just very creepy.

[Summers]

Zombie's remix album is awesome.

Yeah, seriously. I'd strongly suggest listening to it. It's an amazing remix album.

[Lord Nibbler]

You should stick Do They Know It's Hallowe'en? on there too.
