Joy Division, lightly. Siouxsie and the Banshees. Marylin Manson. Ministry. Drumcorps. Coil. Current 93. Angelo Badalamenti. Old NIN stuff. Some dark Aphex Twin stuff. Venetian Snares, the Rossz Szillag album especially, and Doll Doll Doll. Bong Ra´s slower stuff. The Killimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble. David Bowie´s Outside. Somatic Responses. Uniform. Wolf Eyes. Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat. Milanese. Depeche Mode. Scorn.
Some of this stuff might be hard to digest for someone at first. It´s a music worth listening to.
Riboflavin-- 45 Grave Dr Jekyll-- The Damned Cemetary Girl--Penis Flytrap Meet the Creeper--Rob Zombie How to make a Monster--Rob Zombie People who died--Jim Carroll
I also have a TON of halloween-themed oldie stuff a DJ friend gave me. You want anything, email me JL 'at' JLJAMIESON 'dot' net and i can yousendit.com you some stuff.
This is what I'll be playing if I have anyone over this year:
Crazy World of Arthur Brown-self titled Roky Erickson-The Evil One The first Coven album, witchcraft-something. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 soundtrack is awesome, especially the Lords of the New Church and Oingo Boingo songs. Sonic Youth-Bad Moon Rising
Excuse me if this has already been posted, but Michael Eades over at yewknee.com posts a Halloween mix every year, and they're pretty spooktacular.
Sorry.

Here's my list, although I'll admit it's a bit more lighthearted.
Halloween- Dave Matthews Band Ghostbusters- Ray Parker Jr. (I'm still waiting for a metal cover of this, btw, so if anyone has one, point it my way) An Eye Is Upon You- Powerman 5000 Dread Rock- Paul Oakenfold M1A1- Gorillaz Don't Fear The Reaper- Blue Oyster Cult Devil's Dance Floor- Flogging Molly I'm Your Boogieman- White Zombie Highway To Hell- AC/DC Werewolves of London- Warren Zevon Dragula (Matrix style) -Rob Zombie Burn The Witch (UNKLE Variation)- Queens of The Stone Age Mitternacht- E Nomine Grim Grinning Ghosts (yes, the Haunted Mansion Theme)- Barenaked Ladies Things To Do in Denver When You're Dead- Warren Zevon It's A Kind Of Magic- Queen (wait...really? I'm not sure this one was my idea.) Symphony Of Destruction- Megadeath (I get this great vision of an evil Pied Piper leading a horde of dancing zombies through burning streets when i listen to this) Watch The Sky For Me- Powerman 5000 (my track has the hidden track stuck on the end of it- The Land Of The Dead Is No Place For The Living- makes an awesome contrast) Heaven, Hell, Or Houston- ZZ Top Feed My Frankenstein- Alice Cooper Sympathy For The Devil- The Rolling Stones The Man Comes Around- Johnny Cash.
A few others that just now occurred to me: Living Dead Girl- Rob Zombie I Put A Spell On You- Marilyn Manson (one of those rare songs of his that I like, but if you're a purist, go for the original) Last Day On Earth- Marilyn Manson Apocalyptica- Anything goes, but I'll recommend Quutamo, Pray!, Harmageddon, Resurrection, and Hall Of The Mountain King. (ONLY if you're feeling sadistic) Halloween- Aqua Beast and the Harlot- Avenged Sevenfold (yeah, they're something of a guilty pleasure. but this song is just so upbeat- i had a dream where me and one of my lady friends were evil overlords and we danced to this at our wedding. i crack up every time i hear it now) Drink To The Dead- Clutch Shock the Monkey- Coal Chamber feat. Ozzy Dethklok- gotta have Dethklok Der Letzte Tag- Elis
i really shouldn't just sit here and go through all 20G of my music...again...
I have a radio show every other week on a low-power fm station here in Sarasota. We stream online, if any of y'all are interested in listening -- wslr.org or go to shoutcast and search for wslr.
My show, Dirge and Dance, is Sunday night/Monday morning from 1-3 a.m. Eastern. Tonight's my pre-Halloween show, and this is the tentative playlist (the sequencing may change a bit, and I might sub out a track or two).
Vincent Price -- intro to Thriller Screamin' Jay Hawkins -- I Put a Spell on You Cramps -- Human Fly Ministry -- Every Day (Is Halloween) Gerard McMann -- Cry Little Sister Michale Graves -- Butchershop Fiona Apple -- Sally's Song Danny Elfman -- Poor Jack Voltaire -- BRAINS! The Misfits -- Dig Up Her Bones The Cure -- Lullaby bad manners -- monster mash Tom Waits -- Dirt in the Ground Neutral Milk Hotel -- Ghost Cowboy Junkies -- Witches Townes Van Zandt -- The Hole Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer -- Texas Underground Oingo Boingo -- Dead Man's Party The Fat Man and Team Fat -- Skeletons In My Closet Faith No More -- Digging The Grave Clutch -- Frankenstein Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds -- The Carny Joy Division -- Dead Souls Future Bible Heroes -- I'm A Vampire Faith & The Muse -- The Unquiet Grave The Smiths -- Cemetry Gates HuDost -- Royal Mountain The Southern Death Cult -- The Crypt Siouxsie & The Banshees -- We Hunger
So, I think my playlist is finished. It clocked in at 3 hours, and 39 songs. All of it came from my personal collection, as I only had the coin to buy the Siouxsie song, "Halloween". My wife politely asked if I could include some songs that were danceable also. Try as I could, I only got one of the Castlevania tracks to work within the mix. The other ones kept sounding too much like video game music. Without further ado, my playlist:
1 Ghosts I - Nine Inch Nails Double Dare - Bauhaus Poison Mind - Michiru Yamane(from the Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles stk) If I Was Your Vampire - Marilyn Manson No Ordinary Love - Deftones(cover of the Sade song, has a much darker tone) Paint It Black - Deadsy Ghost Writer - Daniel Ash Introspectre - Depeche Mode Lullaby - The Cure Forsaken - David Draiman(from the Queen of the Damned stk) Bloodletting (The Vampire Song) - Concrete Blonde Maestro - Julien-K Love Like Blood - Killing Joke #1 Crush (Nellee Hooper Remix) - Garbage Halloween - Siouxsie & the Banshees Fetisha - Orgy Me, I'm Not - Nine Inch Nails Black No.1 - Type O Negative I Put A Spell On You - Marilyn Manson Help Me I Am In Hell - Nine Inch Nails Shadowplay - Joy Division Bela Lugosi's Dead - Bauhaus Black Celebration -Depeche Mode Spooky - Daniel Ash Closer (Precursor) - Nine Inch Nails Ghosts - Japan Dramatica - Orgy She's In Parties - Bauhaus Down in the Park - Gary Numan & Tubeway Army Digital Bath - Deftones Slept so Long - Jay Gordon(from the Queen of the Damned stk) Memphisto - Depeche Mode Eye - Smashing Pumpkins 32 Ghosts IV - Nine Inch Nails Nature's Revenge - Skinny Puppy IsIs - Yeah Yeah Yeahs Revival - Orgy Summer Breeze - Type O Negative Burn - The Cure
