Pitchfork Media's "Everyday is Halloween"
It’s Halloween, and you know what that means: parents carefully inspecting Oh Henry! bars for razorblades, the best television of the year, and horrible sounds emanating from the neighbors’ houses. But is that really enough? Doesn’t it suck that kids could be going around with bloody hatchets and fake stab wounds instead of parading as Elmo and firemen? Where’s the terror? Where the f*ck is the goddamn fear??<br /><br />
That’s what we were wondering, until we took a good look at our record collections. Since everything comes back to the beautiful strains of music for us Pitchdorks, we decided we’d share some of the more scarifying sounds we’ve had the great discomfort of being exposed to. Speakers come alive to these records and bite you. Headphones suck brains. Turntable needles sink under your fingernails. And remember: if the volume’s high enough, no one can hear you scream.
