Its a tale as old as time itself: masked killer chops up a bunch of horny teenagers. This is like the Illiad of horror stories, and for Halloween, Brooklyn garage punkers Total Slacker adopt that approach for their video for ‘Sometimes You Gotta Die’. The video is pretty cool, but its the song that really accelerates the action, a torturous mix of fuzz and squeal that gives a doom-laden approach to the ensuing massacre. Think if The Shining was soundtracked by early Mudhoney. Actually, that’s a really good idea, someone should totally do that.
