Thread: Halloween in everyday life

Tweet

Hey guys, I was wondering if you ever find thingd related to Halloween in everyday life like music, art, or work?

For example, my favorite band is Avenged Sevenfold, and I was listening to a song from their first album called Darkness Surrounding, and I looked at the lyrics, and they were very Halloween-ish

Not really an answer to your question but a youtube link if you haven't saw it yet, I highly recommend it...It's "Guitar Guy" comedy routine that makes a really cool reference to Avenged Sevenfold in the end....It's R rated so beware....Enjoy.....ZR

And to answer your question, maybe not every day but through out the year there's this forum, RFR, Hauncast, movies.....etc.....ZR

Thanks, yeah I actually saw that video a couple of days ago on Youtube, funny though

The band Collide, every time I listen to them it always reminds me of Halloween.

Real cool...

Two of my favorite bands, Midnight Syndicate and Nox Arcana, are very much Halloween-oriented. The art that I'm into is mostly Gothic/Fantasy (Joseph Vargo, Anne Stokes, Tom
Wood, etc.), so that also spills over. I'm sure that it is similar with many of the members, since touches of Halloween can be found in many things if one looks hard enough.

I'm actually working on a body of illustration for licensing, most of which is seasonal, so I'm thinking about Halloween related imagery, symbols and color pallettes as early as January.

Naturally, music helps my mood, so Halloween tunes often play in the house during spring and summer.

I only give myself a break in November/December, when instead of getting my Ghoul on, I get my Yule on.

My site forces me to look for images, videos, music, etc. with a Halloweenesque feel to it. One of my favorite bands, The Black Dahlia Murder, has plenty of songs that build a sensation of Halloween feeling. Their new album, Ritual, is heavy on the dark arts theme and it's been quite inspirational for that Halloween feel.

Burning incense will certainly help that every day desire you seek.

I saw avery cool skeleton archer at the Utah Arts Festival. Other than a Bucky skull, It was made of random metal parts...for instance the ribs were made of various sizes of adjustable wrenches.
