Songs about vampires


Recommended Posts

  • 2023 Gold Donors

I've been listening to Jorn Lande and Trond Holter's Swing of Death and it got me thinking about other vampire related songs.

Here's a few and i reckon they're all killers.

 

The Lizzy Borden one is interesting. I don't know if it was intended to be on the soundtrack,

but judging by the lyrics it was heavily influenced by "The Lost Boys".

Swing of Death! Totally forgot about that one. Thanks for reminding me. Definitely want to pick it up.

I Love it, but then again there's not much jorn does that i don't love.

Ok, let's nicely put an end to this topic, btw, I never was a fan of these themes, it just happens that some of my all time favorite songs are about them...

 

 

I have in my time had many brides, Mr. Harker...

 

 

Probably my favorite underground guitar hero, Andre Corbin...

That's a great song mate.

I haven't really given The Poodles much of a listen.

I might have to start.

One of my favourite bands of the modern era. Clash of the Elements is a classic album.

That Poodles song is good. I have a few of their albums, but they tend to lean towards that European heavy but lacking hooks and melodies feel.

Might have to listen to some again.

 

One of the best....

Yeah, that was a poor recollection of the band.

Heaps of hooks and melodies, at times it leans a bit towards AOR for me.

Just listened to some Devil In The Details and it's better than I recalled.

Crying and Shine were good songs.

Good call. I always liked that tune.

This is a category I know too well ... I'll try not to go too nuts :crazy:

I'm sure you're very well versed in all vampire related music. I may have opened up a can of worms! ;)

This is a concept album based on the legend of the Hungarian "blood countess" Elizabeth Bathory

    • Kickin' riff. This is a cool tune indeed. New album sounding promising. 
    • Doesn't do much for me. Not sure it's any better than what I've heard from the new BJ album... but I guess it's not too bad. Wouldn't play it again, though. 
    • Bit 50/50 on it, myself. I prefer the stuff on Mick's solo album, but it's not a bad song. That kind of solo in a Motley song definitely sticks out... but not in a bad way. It's cool. I dig. 
    • Did they actually break up? They were releasing albums annually and finally fixed up the production end but haven't heard from them for a while now. Always loved everything they released, personally.  Edit - yeah, 'Be Here' from 2020 seems to be the last album. Allegedly still active, but obviously no recent albums. Would love to hear them add to the discography. 
    • Released back in 2019 on vinyl only in most of the world, the only place it could be purchased on CD was Japan. It is finally available on CD to the rest of the world with the addition of two bonus tracks. One is the usual "bonus" track of a live recording of Go man go, and the other is the song Don't give up which was released at the start of the pandemic as a single. https://townsendmusic.store/product/140275?lf=035f179d9c80928d2d3b155fa72b0731 Follow the breadcrumbs to a sonic treasure trove with Alice Cooper's "Breadcrumbs" EP, which will be available on CD for the first time ever, featuring additional bonus tracks on this edition! Originally released in 2019 as a limited-edition 10" vinyl record, "Breadcrumbs" is a tribute to the garage rock heroes of Alice Cooper's hometown of Detroit. The EP features six tracks that showcase Cooper's raw and energetic take on classic Detroit tunes, including Suzi Quatro's "Your Mama Won't Like Me", Bob Seger's "East Side Story", and the MC5's "Sister Anne". It also includes the two additional bonus tracks "Don’t Give Up", conveying Cooper’s message of hope and perseverance to his fans during the COVID-19 pandemic, and a live version of "Go Man Go" from his electrifying set at Hellfest 2022. The album featured a star-studded lineup of Detroit musicians, including Wayne Kramer of the MC5, Johnny "Bee" Badanjek of the Detroit Wheels, and Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad. "Breadcrumbs" marked the beginning of Alice Cooper's homecoming, a journey that culminated in the critically acclaimed studio album "Detroit Stories", released in 2020. This EP served as a taste of Cooper's profound affection for his hometown's rich musical heritage, making it an essential addition for any devoted fan of the shock rock icon.   1.

    • New song "Summerlovin" feat. Olli Herman, me likey...  
    • Pretty awesome! I often fantasize about starting an AOR, but I know nothing about making music.
    • Not gonna lie, I kind of like it. Hardly classic Crue, more like something that would have appeared on the Corabi-fronted self-titled album, but it's not bad for an oldschool band trying a modern hard rock song. That being said, I expect my opinion to be a lonely one, and I understand why fans are dogging on it...
