DEATH ROCK: Dawn of the Dead goes Punk

What happens when punks watch too many b-grade horror movies, collide with surf rock and rockabilly, then mainline a heavy dose of the Groovie Ghoulies? You get DEATH ROCK! These days the kids are calling it “horror punk” but whatever you choose to call it, the music is a bizarre brew of jagged punk energy, horror flick vibes, and a theatrical flair for the ironically macabre. This episode of RADIO BANZAI is deep dive into the deathrock genre--past and present.

<< Apologies for the mic problems during my intro. The problem is solved soon after in the broadcast. >>
