The Other is a German horror punk band. It is considered the most prominent example of the horror punk genre in Europe. The Other was founded in 2002 in Leichlingen, Germany. Rod Usher, Sarge von Rock, Dr. Caligari and Andy Only started out as a Misfits cover band under the name Ghouls in 1999. The Other made a name for themselves soon after their foundation, especially due to their outfits, which are inspired by old horror movies. Punk and deathrock fans appreciated the band’s sound, which can be called a mixture of punk, deathrock, rockabilly, and metal.

Now they have released their fifth album called “The Devils You Know”. Fifteen songs full of pure Horrorpunk. Evil music with horror themes, spreading fear amongst the living. Catchy tunes animate you to join the zombie walk and dance along. The songs are easy to sing along to. A promising album for spooky live shows. Strong guitar riffs and fast drums get your pulse pumping and your heart beat faster. A great new album for all Halloween and monster fans out there. Be sure to check them out when The Other party with ghouls in your town. The Other’s new album “The Devils You Know” is out now. Go get it.
