DROP DEAD JOURNAL | The Cutting Edge of the Underground Sound

New Releases: Cherry Red

English Label Cherry Red  is a bit of a slice of heaven when it comes to Goth, Punk or Psychobilly re-releases and compilations. In resent years among many hard to find material collected and re-released  were  incomparable Dancing Did, fabulous Divine and who is who of Punk and Psychobilly from Adicts to Wasted Youth. Among November releases five albums deserve a special notise. Witness a carer retrospective of Into the Circle, Gothy dream pop. CD features 20 essential tracks that include b-sides and 12′ remixes. Taste Alien Sex Fiend genre hoping, mutated Frankenstein devouring goth, deathrock, punk and techno in equal amounts. This double CD with 14 tracks each, focuses  on b-sides and remixes from ASF 12″ singles. Have you heard, Only meteors are Psychobilly? Well if you want proof here is 5 disc career retrospective. Some essential songs are missing of course but that is to be expected from a band with such a large catalog. Where is Captain Kirk? Spizzenergy got an answer for you. Although they s the first Indy band to chart a number 1 single, their music was hard to find until now. of course we know that you are abscessed with Vincent Price, who isn’t? Here is a final devilish delight a whole, entire cd of Vincent Price voice overs, stories, and radio recordings.

Photos: Drop Dead Festival 6

It’s been a little over a month since the finish of the Drop Dead Festival 6.  Looking back now it almost seems impossible that we shared five days of perfect madness and music overdose in Portugal. We came from all over the world and we celebrated like there is no tomorrow. As after the festival blues sets in and I begin to miss the hell out of friends who live way to far for me too visit, here is a bit of a pick me up. Please enjoy a first installment of out Drop Dead Family Album. ! Please send us your photos, videos and experiences from the DDF to dropdeadmagazine at gmail.com!
