“Halloween” is almost 30 years old US heavy metal formation. There is the sixth album of the band titled “Terrortory”.

What are you waiting for from the band named “Halloween”? Since childhood that’s something froze you blood and scared you to the death. Even title “Terrortory” mentions the territory of horror and death as result. There is over an hour of old heavy metal with horrible stories about fears, paranoia and supernatural/afterlife.

My ears pleased to hear several tracks. “Her Ghost Comes Out To Play” is the first in line. Quite dramatic, quite melodic and quite scary. When releasing of the act of homicide and resurrection of Her to point the murder which is “You”, your brave gone away. Another not so positive track “Hands Around My Throat”. The ballad about, yes, quite dismal things. For self-titled song have been shot a video that arranges the obvious things: cemetery, bands’ performance onstage and pathetic woman in the dark. And the last to be pointed track is “Not one”. The longest track with killer drums beating and guitars work. To be honest for seventy minutes the album seemed neverending. Despite of the not so strong voice equipments’ work is just excellent. So after listening to the entire album just say your prayers. Or come to the dark side. “Halloween” has cookies.
