Groovy Graveyard Gangbang

(22 minutes, 2022)




I love the Halloween season, and I've wanted to release a spooky holiday album for a while. Unfortunately, my timing is dogshit; Suck the Dick of Dracula came out in February. This year, things somehow lined up just right. I thought about waiting till the 31st to release this one, but October is kind of a month-long celebration, and this gives (notional) people time to listen to it before The Day.

The main themes of the album are contained in the first and last tracks. Whores Underground is about an annual stag party held by the country club elite of a mid-sized American town. These paunchy, balding Elks Club-types get together in the cemetary, and after a couple-few beers, they follow the Six Thousand Steps down to the unspeakably ancient subterranean necropolis where the real party is waiting. Drugcoven Clubhouse is my best attempt at a Thrill Kill Kult knock-off. I spliced together samples from anti-drug PSAs with Satanic Panic video clips to evoke the vague sense I had as a kid in the "Just Say No" era that drug use was some kind of dark, occult ritual. In my version of Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue, the message is "Just Say Yes...to Satan." What are you, chicken?

Gay Married to God, BTDS, and Kill the Type A's are all crunchy, quick and dirty little tracks which don't have any real connection to the horror theme. This album feels a little like two shorter EPs mashed together, with the horror tracks sandwiching the dumb joke songs like a Turkish prison cell shiskebab.

The cover art I'm especially happy with. I penciled and inked the SLIMECOP logo and the necrobang by hand and then colored them digitally, adding in bats and a skull I clipped from some classic Halloween decorations.
