Top 5 Halloween Songs


Well, I love music, I listen to it more than anything I do, well other than ride my bike and draw, in fact I'm listening to it right now! And I love when music really get's a response from you, and when I can scare you, you know it's good! Today we'll talk about music good for Halloween, so if you're throwing a Halloween party this year, read this damn article.


#5: Sympathy For the Devil
What's better for Halloween than music about the Devil? A song by The Rolling Stones (I really shouldn't have to tell you that, but some people are dumb) off the album Beggar's Banquet. From the point of of view of the Devil, it's a great song.
If you don't know this song, which I doubt, you need to listen to it, because you've most likely been living under a rock you're whole life.

This song is number 5 because it's not that scary, well it won't get a scared reaction from you anyways.




#4: Halloween
A song that's really about Halloween, from one of my bands no less, MASTODON BITCHES!!! Sorry about that, couldn't control myself. This song comes from there newest album Once More 'Round the Sun. This is one of my favorite Mastodon songs, and just songs in general, but the reason it only made number 4 is becaus because, like Sympathy, It's really not scary, but it doesn't really have to be to be in this list.

This song is great, if you haven't heard yet, go listen to it.





#3: Hell's Bells
This time an AC/DC song, from the album Back In Black. Great song, probably my favorite song without Bonn Scott. Not scary, but is Halloween Friendly, and if you have to ask why, read the damn title.

Not a lot to say about this song other than it's good, and, uh... it's AC/DC.








#2: Highway To Hell
Another AC/DC song, and probably the most well known AC/DC song. Every one knows this song, and again, if you don't you most likely live under the rock next the one where the guy who doesn't know Sympathy lives. This song almost deserves number one, but I really couldn't bring myself to do it.

Other than that, it's the last album with Bonn Scott, sharing the same name as the song. Great song, listen to it this Halloween, you won't be sorry.




Before we go onto number 1, here are some honorable mentions

1. Mr. Crowley - Ozzy Osbourne

2.  War Pigs - Black Sabbath

3. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - Black Sabbath

4. What's Next's to the Moon - AC/DC

5. The Creeping Death - Metallica

6. Hand of Doom - Black Sabbath

7. Back in Black - AC/DC

8. Behind the Wall of Sleep - Black Sabbath

And now get ready to shit your pants, get ready to amazed and dazzled, get ready for....



#1: Black Sabbath Peel Sessions

The final cut of the song would have been great enough, but the Peel Sessions version is so much better than the released version. With an extra verse, 3 more minutes, and an even crustier sound.

This whole Peel Sessions album is scary and great, but this song really makes you feel uncomfortable, it's eerie, even more evil, and of course scary as fuck!








So that's it, five difference scary Halloweeny,  songs to listen to this Halloween. Tell me if you think this list is missing anything you think should be on it, or maybe something that shouldn't be on it, give me your opinion.
