Happy Halloween, everybody! Kids and I decided to record a spooky tune for Halloween, so we took on John Carpenter's classic. We considered doing a surf version, but the kids thought a metal-y version would be scarier. So I got out the Explorer and off we went, costumes and all. Hope you enjoy it! By the way, figuring out 5/4 time was a fun challenge for us. Great lesson in time signature. Hope everybody has gnarly Halloween!

Thanks, Noel! Pretty wacky stuff, but we had a blast making it. And I know it's not exactly surf, but for what it's worth, I totally heaped on the reverb - full stereo even!

Los Straitjackets have a version on Mondo Zombie Boogaloo, the Halloween album they did with The Fleshtones and Southern Culture on the Skids. This video taken by Unsteady Freddie is from their recent combined tour.

Well whaddya know - that was awesome! Thanks for posting, Noel. I'm kinda glad we didn't surf it up now. Couldn't have touched this one!
