CD released: Jun 14, 2019
A grimly glamorous ghoul who first slithered from the cobwebbed shadows of Charlotte, NC in the early-90s, Wednesday 13 has firmly established himself as the world's premier purveyor of balls-out horror punk insanity. With a vivid and vile imagination that has endeared him to countless fans of riff-driven macabre over the last two and a half decades, he has been one of rock's most prolific protagonists, spreading his credo of grave-robbing rock 'n' roll and Hallowe'en debauchery around the globe and unleashing a seemingly endless stream of blood-spattered albums and EPs. Napalm Records is making eight essential Wednesday 13 albums (including Gunfire 76 project) available again on vinyl in the summer of 2019! Fifth horror punk manifesto The Dixie Dead (2013) is certainly not stingy when it comes to good old-fashioned ghost stories: this time the maestro used celluloid classics such as Poltergeist and Hands of the Ripper for inspiration. Massive metal riffs and industrial undertones deliver the eerie soundtrack for these grim tales. |
