Well, one more Roky Erickson song before we call a halt to October. This is actually not his scariest song (That is "Bloody Hammer" which I think is about a haunted insane asylum and is actually too horrifying for me to listen to very often), but I think it's a great one to have playing in your brain when you're out trick-or-treating. Or handing out candy. Or walking on a deserted path in the dark. What always makes Roky's stuff work in a way that other artists' forays into horror don't is that he really sounds like he believes this stuff. Just check out his vocal here; he certainly sounds like a guy who believes vampires are real. So, enjoy: this is my big Halloween decoration, since the kids made me take down the severed head impaled on a "No Trespassing" sign. (Really. I loved this thing, and it just terrified them. Sigh...)
