War Hoarse - A Halloween Treat For Your Ears

Just in time for All Hallow's Eve, Mark Beaver (one of the original founders of this very website) has released a demo, concept album full of spooky scary tunes under the moniker "War Hoarse"
The inspiration and many of the samples of the album come from "kitschy, once-a-year Halloween jams of 50's and 60's surf and garage rock bands," accompanied by Beaver's "hoarse" growling vocals

So tonight while you await a pack of candy-craving pre-teens to come to your door.  Throw on War Hoarse to set the Halloween mood.
