Samhain - "Archangel"

So tonight I'm processing all of this year's haunt photos (tune in tomorrow!) and listening to some Samhain. What a great band, what a great record (and cover art), and what a truly great song. Some of Glenn Danzig's finest work... Enjoy!

Heaven sends me here to you

And if a-you fear you've reason to

Open up all seven seals

The beast is come to claim the youth

Archangel

Archangel

Defiant brood

Defiant brood

I call on you

Casted down my bretheren

Rebels from authority

Power, pride, contempt and lust

All these things I give to you

Archangel

Archangel

Defiant brood

Defiant brood

I call on you

I am not your son of God

The prince of light will show no fear

Mine is that which rules this world

The beast is come, I am the end

Archangel

Archangel

And when they cast out the brood

For the sin of pride misused

And when they cast down to Hell

Fucking brood

Archangel

Archangel

Heaven sends me here to you

And if a-you fear you've reason to

Open up all seven seals

The beast is come to claim the youth

Archangel

Archangel

  

Samhain - "The Howl"

 

There is a human slaughterhouse

Up on the hill

The road is red

And those who ignore

And those who pretend

It does not exist

End up in it's hull

My blood goes to work

I hear the howl

There is a grove of bleached bones

Where lupins vomit childrens limbs

Taking all their liberties

With parts of human anatomy

And in the hollow of a restless soul

Lies no remorse and no disgust

Every kill is clean and pure

Every thought is cleansed in growls

There is a grove of tortured forms

Where all is dark and deeds are foul

And those who ignore

And those who pretend

That the howl is a joke

Their children lie dead

My blood goes to work

I hear the howl...

  

Samhain - "The Howl"

It ain't Halloween without a little Glenn Danzig playing somewhere! This from Danzig's underrated second band, Samhain.

I'm spending the day in the garage, trying to wrap up another prop project to be revealed shortly, so the Samhain playlist will be playing all day!

Enjoy!

Samhain - "All Murder, All Guts, All Fun"

It's already the week of Halloween and I still haven't posted anything from Samhain!?
