DBL#14/15 Double Feature

Destroy Before Listening

This episode is a recut pairing of DBL #14 & #15 released in 2021 both with myself and Chay Lawrence. These episodes are topical for the month of October because they both concern the Horror genre. I was very happy with how they turned out and don't feel enough people got the chance to check them out when I'd switched podcast hosting. Anyhow I included a new introduction which goes someway to explaining why I've done fuck all with the podcast for most of the year! DBL#14: The episode here is a look at film, more specifically the 'Folk Horror' movie genre with Chay Lawrence who played in the bands Bob Tilton, Tribute and Coffin Pricks. All of his musical life is discussed at length in Episode #9 if you want to hear more about his background.Chay is also a big fan of the horror genre and October is a good month to discuss this stuff. 'Folk Horror' is usually based around 3 famous Hammer films: Wicker man, Blood on Satan's claw and Witchfinder general. We take things from there and end up with some unusual twists and turns into the 'Found Footage' genre with a focus on Hollow (2011), Borderlands (2013) & Crone Wood (2016). Intro music: DIE KREUZEN - Among the Ruins Outro: DEAD AND GONE - Mary King's Close. DBL#15 'UNDEAD SOUNDTRACKS' This is another episode where myself and Chay Lawrence take a shot at discussing some Horror movie soundtracks. There are a load of films to talk about, too many to take in because there was about another hour of recording which was either just brainstorming or rambling tangents. We start with the obvious and look at John Carpenter's scores then Tangerine Dream's contributions, as well as the classic Herzog/Popul Vuh teaming on Nosferatu. There were a number of Soundtracks from the 90s where bands played a huge role in a films visibility like the Crow. The well curated soundtrack for Return of the Living Dead is also discussed as well as obviously, the group Goblin. There's a bunch of other great films we talk about and share some cool anecdotes. Intro music: DIE KREUZEN - 'Halloween' Outro: ZOMBI - 'Slow Oscillations (7" version)'. Follow on Instagram @destroybeforelistening
