The Daily Choice: Spooktober - Ghosts Don’t Exit
It’s been a big week for music as I’ve stumbled across a new, as you might say, source of music that’s reinvigorated my waning lust-love.
Spooktober sounds like a few things:
1. A Christmas bass album. Only for a few moments, but right there in the beginning I hear “Jingle Bells” as filtered through a rinky-dink synthesizer Spooktober’s mother bought them for their collective ninth birthday. Only for a moment though.
2. Nirvana. Yup, when those guitars come roaring in on top of Mannheim Steamroller’s Bass Christmas, all of sudden I’m fourteen years old crying in my room to Nirvana’s Bleach. Angst angst and more angst.
3. Then the song starts rolling, and this is dirty, gutter-water rock ‘n’ roll, and I wipe my tears, hang up the wreath, throw on my scrubby jeans and go out and play in the rain.
I’ve got so much more to share. I’m just curdling with excitement.
