Graveyard Groove: The Haunted History of Monster Music from "Monster Mash" to Horror Punk
$10.65
In the mid-1950s, a new genre of novelty music emerged that mixed humor and horror. The result: Monster Music! Suddenly, jukeboxes were filled with songs about Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolf Man, creatures from outer space and a multitude of supernatural terrors. The genre reached its peak in 1962 with Bobby "Boris" Pickett's smash "Monster Mash," but there are many more songs worthy of rediscovery -- and Monster Music still lives on today, thanks to the influence of punk pioneers like The Cramps and The Misfits. Here is the complete, untold story of Monster Music -- the genre that refused to die!
