Authors Note – I feel really bad that I’m just posting this now… I was getting ready to go to bed this evening and decided to check my SPAM folder… boy was I glad I did because THIS gem was in there. Thanks SO much Sam for passing along a review copy and my sincere apologies for the delay!
Recommendation
If you like spooky horror music you HAVE to give this one a listen. Put it on in the background and just enjoy the vibe. I’ve been a lifelong pro wrestling fan and I can’t help to pick up some old school Undertaker, Brood and Mankind tones here and that’s AWESOME. Just what I was looking for this holiday season!
If you’re looking for some creepy, spooky tunes this Halloween season give this one a listen – it’s TREMENDOUS!
Thank you so much for the review and fantastic feedback for my tracks with Sam! We really tried to go for that Dark Gothic Energy this year, so I’m thrilled you enjoyed it! Thanks again!
