Monster, Monster II – I Dug a Hole in the Yard for You

Last week of our countdown, so here’s some more newish stuff from Lordi, my favorite monsters. Although why you’d invite these guys to a wedding, I will never know. Introduction to the Monster, Monster II series here.

Monster, Monster II – Saturday Morning Cartoon Edition

Happy weekend! Have some Cab Calloway. Introduction to the Monster, Monster II series here.

Monster, Monster II – Flashback Friday Edition

[I know, 80s movie tie-ins two days in a row, but somehow I missed this one last time around and ended up featuring it out of season. I really had fun with this and wanted to feature it properly. -2020 Jane] Remember my Halloween Monster Music Video Countdown from a few years back? Well, I […]

Monster, Monster II – Shocker

More 80s movie tie-in goodness. The Dudes of Wrath were actually a briefly-lived (a couple songs on a single soundtrack) supergroup consisting of Paul Stanley (KISS), Desmond Child (better known as the writer of half the power-ballad-hair-band hits of the time than as a vocalist), Vivian Campbell (Def Leppard), Guy Mann-Dude, Rudy Sarzo (Quiet Riot, […]

With all the great older genre stuff that is turning up on Amazon Prime, it was suggested that everyone pick something suitably weird and […]

Monster, Monster – Monster

So Skillet is not the sort of Christian rock that you’re likely to hear at your next praise and worship service (well, maybe Awake and Alive, I don’t actually have any idea, being terminally Anglican and having not attended a modern praise and worship service since roughly 1998).
