The second of the three nights of the 2012 Psychobilly Luau took place at the Bell House, a hall tucked off in an warehouse cranny in Brooklyn; plenty of parking for the drivers and close enough to the 4th-Ave stop on the F/G for straphangers. For the eastern psycho, July 2012 held such promise with …

The Madeira Tribal Fires [audio:http://www.gravediggerslocal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/The-Madeira-Tribal-Fury.mp3] If you’re a fan of surf music, you more than likely already own ‘Tribal Fires’ by The Madeira. It’s forgivable if you don’t, but until you do, you’re going to get a stern look from everyone around you. RIGHTFULLY SO, I might add. The prevalent theme of ‘travel’ among The …

The Bloodtypes Just Your Type [Audio:http://www.gravediggerslocal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/The-Bloodtypes-Just-Your-Type.mp3] Despite being type O-Negative (seriously. I have the card to prove it) I never was into slow trudge. I like my blood to be flowing freely, like the punk rock of the Bloodtypes on ‘Just Your Type.’ Glad in white that is liberally splattered with the stuff keeping you …

I like independent horror. Being slightly mental (in more ways than one) I need only a semi-good story and some decent sound and BAM! I’m having a good time. ZOMBIE HUNTER is an independently produced series from Deadman Productions. Season One can be found online at YouTube (and available for purchase on DVD.) Season Two …

It really doesn’t make sense for me to hate on him. I still do and I still won’t watch his work but damn. Damn. Joss Whedon’s Cabin In The Woods had Norman “Baron Shivers of the The Ghastly Ones” Cabrera as the lead artist is something that…. Well. It’s one of those “Goddamnit, you’re not making …

If you listened to the latest episode of the 6’+ podcast, (which you can subscribe to on iTunes or listen to through Stitcher) you heard the song ‘Nameless’ by a band King Ghidora. Taking their name from the Monster Zero antagonist of the Toho/Godzilla mythos, they play surf-space rock heavily influenced by Man…Or Astro-Man?, Dick …

There aren’t many albums that I listen to from start to finish on my first play. I usually stop, do something completely unrelated to the music at hand and, when a significant amount of time has passed, I come back to finish the album, usually restarting it. Or, worse, the music is so bad that …

Popcorn Horror http://www.PopcornHorror.com Available for Android and iPhone. Admittedly, I don’t have a lot of horror apps on my phone. And that might not be my fault. I use a Galaxy SII with the Android OS, whose app store is slightly anemic compared to the robust iPhone App store, but each platform has an abundant …

DONATE HERE Kickstarter has become the number one “crowd-funding” sites out there, mainly due to high profile people using the service. I’ve talked about it in the past, both with Transylvania-TV’s Halloween Special and mentioning the service in a write up about the remake/prequel/sequel of the 2006 movie Behind the Mask (aka Before The Mask). …

Thursday are rough days. It’s not the middle, the beginning or even the end of the week. It’s the perfect time for feeling the blues. Larry Thurston and Jeff Alexander reached out to GdL16 and let everyone here know of their song ‘Gravediggin’ Man.’ It’s a great tribute to all those who have felt so …

I don’t like the work of Joss Whedon because I think his storytelling relies far too much on the complex, over-reaching ideas/ arcs than focusing on the basic principles. I think he values being clever more than being good. Further research into Cabin In The Woods ultimately sank a prior post I had previously written, …

Labretta Suede and the Motel 6, Dumb & Dirty Official Site Let’s face it – there’s a widespread pandemic of men not having any game anymore. I liken it to the advent of modern video gaming, funny enough, most notably with the introduction of the X-Box. Gaming became less an outlet of gamers and …
