LOST OF METAL SOMGS ON TAP TAP REVENGE 3 MOVIE
The tragedy of Talbot’s curse and his impending fate are driven home as singer Bobby Liebling intones, “Shotgun blasts as he runs with the wind/But he just can’t win/It’s the Pentagram.” A hard-hitting track thick with a classic monster movie vibe, “Sign Of The Wolf” deserves a hallowed place on every horror and metal fan’s playlist. A riff-laden metal masterpiece, “Sign Of The Wolf” conjures the plight of the film’s cursed protagonist Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney Jr.) and the fearsome sign that marks his victims. A driving, uptempo song in the mode of Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid,” “Sign Of The Wolf” draws its imagery from the 1941 Universal classic The Wolf Man. Underground doom-metal trailblazers Pentagram take a grimmer view of lycanthropy on “Sign Of The Wolf (Pentagram)” from their 1985 debut, Relentless. Pentagram – “Sign Of The Wolf (Pentagram)” With tongue (and fangs) planted firmly in cheek, Interior’s sardonic lyrics perfectly capture the monstrosity and awkwardness of teenage life, which is hard enough without the added embarrassment of being a werewolf. Conjuring images of lonely lover’s lanes and moonlit madness, Poison Ivy’s reverb-drenched guitar lines weave seductively around frontman Lux Interior’s increasingly unhinged vocals on this lament to adolescent lycanthropy. The Cramps – “I Was A Teenage Werewolf”īased on the 1957 drive-in cult classic of the same name, “I Was A Teenage Werewolf” is the fourth track from psychobilly punk demigods the Cramps’ near-perfect 1980 debut album, Songs The Lord Taught Us.
Sung from the perspective of the film’s doomed protagonist David Kessler, who knows love can’t survive his lycanthropic curse, “Love Bites,” like the film it’s centered on, teeters on the edge of camp but is just restrained enough to give the heartstrings an irony-free tug. One of their best is a drastic departure from their usual metalcore sound, the midtempo ballad “Love Bites,” based on John Landis’ 1981 horror classic An American Werewolf In London. If any band can give the Misfits a run for their money when it comes to incorporating classic horror films into their music, it’s Ice Nine Kills. Featuring Pantera ’s Phil Anselmo (credited as Anton Crowley on guitar) and lyrics as brutal as Fulci’s gore-strewn, apocalyptic imagery, “And You Will Live In Terror” is Necrophagia at their breakneck best. Killjoy, a lifelong devotee of filmmaker Lucio Fulci, pays tribute to the Italian horror master’s most celebrated film The Beyond with “And You Will Live In Terror” from theirs 2000 EP, Black Blood Vomitorium. Necrophagia – “And You Will Live In Terror”įounded by the late Frank “Killjoy” Pucci, death-metal pioneers Necrophagia began using horror film elements from their inception on songs such as the Evil Dead -inspired “Ancient Slumber” from their 1987 debut, Season Of The Dead. Featured on their 1977 album Spectres, BÖC’s ode to the atomic-powered, city-stomping lizard has since been covered by artists such as System Of A Down ’s Serj Tankian and stoner-rock favorites Fu Manchu, proving again and again that you can’t keep a good monster down.

Hold onto your hearses because we’re exhuming 20 hellish horror movie-inspired hits that are not from the Misfits. Danzig and company are far from the only or the first extreme act to incorporate horror movie themes into their music. With results ranging from the sublime fury of the classic Glenn Danzig -fronted lineup’s “ Astro Zombies ” to the unabashedly ridiculous “ The Devil’s Rain ” of the post- Michale Graves, Jerry Only and Friends era, no band have incorporated direct callbacks to horror cinema better, or on occasion worse, than Lodi, New Jersey’s homegrown ghouls. Beginning with their 1979 single “ Night Of The Living Dead ,” the Misfits have made a career of mining classic, cult and B-grade movies for fodder for their hard-driving, melodic brand of patented horror punk.
