We have a new Halloween song for this year, you can get it on : https://blackballbandits.bandcamp.com/track/glowin-skeletons
Our recipe for this year : fast guitars/drums, spooky keyboard, haunting theremin, and sound samples from a classic 80's movie
It's also a good time to get our "Tales from the Shadows" Halloween CD from last year, price reduced to 5$ on Bandcamp : https://blackballbandits.bandcamp.com/album/tales-from-the-shadows
Happy/Spooky Halloween season to all !

This is really cool! I like how you guys vary the intensity and the theme throughout the song.
The theremin part sounds like a woman screaming. Nice!

Yes that's true, the theremin sounds like a screaming of a woman, but it's not the first time I heard (and saw)this in this way. Here's a link to the video that shows what I mean. I heard this about exactly 50 years ago. It's a video about a Hard and Heavy rocking band of the the early '70s: "Led Zeppelin". I saw this band playing a live concert in Cologne in Summer 1970. And they used a Theremin in playing their greatest hit "Whole Lotta Love". Here's a link to a video that shows that I am right. Sadly there is no video about their concert in Cologne 1970, but they used this thing also, when they played there. It starts at about minute 1:50

Thanks for the feedbacks guys, appreciate it !
Yes I had distortion on the theremin, which makes it sounds like a "screaming woman", and less like a ghost. Also reverb and delay on it. Ukay54, that's a cool version of the song, he definitely had some distortion on that theremin too.

Yep, I really love your music the same as I love Led Zeppelin. Hope to see you one day performing live in Europe.
Best wishes

Thank you so much, being in the same sentence as Led Zeppelin is something lol. We really hope to play in Europe sometimes. But first we're looking forward to play at all !
