Rage Song:Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath Genre: Heavy Metal/Doom Metal, Hard Rock Description: (ripped from loudersound) "Inspired by bassist Geezer Butler’s hallucination of Satan materialising at the foot of his bed, Black Sabbath’s eponymous song explores the notion of being confronted by the Devil. [...] this menacingly slow burn thrums with a fear of mortality and the unknown."
The arguable first heavy metal song off the first heavy metal album by the first heavy metal band, the use of the devil's note gives it a haunting vibe that is perfect for spooky season

Gota Love Yaoi
Song: Three 6 Mafia - Walk Up To Your House Genre: Memphis Rap, Horrorcore Description: What Three 6 Mafia did on this comp will never be replicated. Hazy. hypnotic, campy/spooky. It's October it's time play this shit loudly!!!
Song: Resident Evil 1 Remake - Safe Haven Genre: OST Description: This is supposedly the safe theme but smth about the remake's arrangement of this song is so ominous, smth about the ghostly wails in the background makes me feel more anxious than safe listening to it

namda Song: Ado - Aishite Aishite Aishite Genre: Vocaloid Utaite, J-Pop Description: The song itself is an original song by Kikuo featuring Hatsune Miku, talking about the story of a girl who is craving for love and attention from other people.
The link provided is a cover by Ado who does an immaculate job of it - the timbre of her voice switching so much alongside the instrumental just has such a spooky szn vibe to it - akin to a creepy room full of dolls ig?
In any case, more reason to talk about the QUEEN ADO I LOVE HER SO MUCH AHHHHH this cover is amazing and the song was already incredible so that's just a +++++++++++++++1 in my books. ta ta ^^
Song: Idiot Flesh - Teen Devil Worshiper Genre: I guess experimental rock Description: Posting since it's October 12th. Apparently inspired by a real event. Used to listen to them a fair bit back like 6 years ago, but no longer in my rotation of music.
Song: The Paper Chase - What's so Amazing About Grace Genre: Experimental / Alt Rock? Description: I will say that this song works best when listening to the album rather than as a stand-alone song. I feel this song conveys the feeling of dread and paranoia the best out of every other song on the album. Saw someone mention it sounds like sliding a straw in a plastic cup and now I can't unhear that...so that's cool.
and something fun...
Song: The Hex Girls - Hex Girl Genre: I'm just gonna say Rock again. Description: Time to bust out the old VHS player.

Song: Dean Blunt - the rot Genre: Dream Pop, Psychedelic Folk Description: just pure autumnal tragic bliss
Apple Song: Maggie Rogers - Alaska Genre: Pop, Indie Folk, Alternative, Indie Description: A quote on the song by Maggie "The music, in a lot of ways, reflects this meditative quality I get from hiking and dancing.
They're two polar opposite things when you're thinking about them from a distance.
With one, you're alone in the middle of nature." - Reminds me of crisp Autumn mornings.
Hey all (excluding marillvibes they're a loser like why on earth are they suggesting October song in November!!!)
Song: We All Fall Down - Kevin Sherwood Genre: Metal Description: Kevin Sherwood, one of the main music producers for CoD Zombies has some absolutely phenomenal songs, both in a VGM sense and outside of that range. Since the focus is Autumn/Fall, I decided to suggest this because, yes, it contains the word fall in it. Leaves fall down in Autumn. Yes, that's my reasoning. So while not a song that would accurately reflect Autumn as a season per se, it's close enough I hope :3c Still, a phenomenal song!
