I remember a few years back I first heard Larry and the Blue Notes Night of the Sadist or as its sometimes titled the Night of the Phantom for radio stations that found Sadist to be a little too dark.
The original is a scuzzy garage rock classic. So what's this one? A Scuzzy Post Punk classic by the Last Drive Off of their album Underworld Shakedown (Great title right?) It's pretty similar but the vocals are a little more whiskey worn and the guitar carries a little more buzz but its just as much the classic as the original. In fact it might even go better if thrown into a little Halloween Mix.
Hope you enjoy the first track of this years Sonic Spooky Soundtrack.
