31 Days of Halloween Music - Day 20

Continuing my annual tradition - today, marks day 20 of celebrating the fun of horror that comes with Halloween. Today, we - and by "we" - me and the voices in my head, plus the specters that haunt my home like to thrash away, thrash away, thrash away all and we continue with current Arlington, Texas darlings Warbeast.

Created with former members of North Texas thrash metal legends Rigor Mortis, singer Bruce Corbitt  and bassist Casey Orr with other well known Texas musicians began a thrash metal machine that has been performing nonstop since their inception in 2008 and with two albums under their belt have shown no signs of slowing down or lightening up. Carrying on Rigor Mortis' tradition of honoring their love of horror movies and all things wicked, they provide a song about the sick life of being a werewolf with a music video that is equally grotesque.


 Keeping in line with my added twist, I also offer original songs dressed up by other people, just like our own beings that don costumes for, normally, one night of the year (but we are all far from normal around here) which leads directly to Dweezil Zappa who's entire family is far from normal. His father, the legend Frank Zappa is considered, especially now, one of the greatest musical and political minds of any generation. His children have carried on his legacy in shining glory with several music projects now and again. Here is Dweezil's interpretation of The BeeGees' "Stayin' Alive."
