5 new music videos to stream and scream along to this Halloween

Article content

Tonight is Halloween.

This means the streets will be haunted by legions of goblin ghouls on the Candy Trail, as well as slightly more grown-up variations, all there for a little October evening entertainment.

With the holiday more popular than ever, the entertainment industry is serious about getting involved to rake in some cash. With pretty much everything from the Vancouver City Hell Show on Victoria Drive to every other popular event scheduled, it only made sense to take a look at some of this year's best music video offerings.

Topping the list is Kelowna hard rock trio Freeze the Fall's new clip, with some other bone-chilling blacked-out boogies.

Play these five songs screaming loud.

Freeze the Fall: VHS | 604 records

Just the reference to VHS tapes in the title of the song lets you know that this will be a trip back to ancient technologies and classic terror motifs. In fact, this song is packed with buzz saw riffs and buzzing saws. Many thanks to Two-Six Films Production for a great piece of gore. Children: Don't do this at home.

Freddie Gibbs: On Set | ESGN Records/AWAL

Actor, rapper and video director Gibbs releases his new album You Only Die 1nce at midnight tonight. Lead single “On the Set” is less spooky and more defiantly steeped in darkness. Gibbs walks through a set, working on material, and seems very, very alone.

Gothminster: Tonight | AFM Records

Old abandoned church; check. Black-clad, scythe-wielding lead singer with bad makeup fetish; check. Collected demon wolves, swords, Sauron tin hats and more. Check. Check. Check. This gothic metal crew from Norway definitely meets the needs of the season.

MF Doom: Voitspit | Rhymesayers Entertainment/Metalface Records

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of MF Doom's MM…Food class, a new official video from fan favorite Vomitspit has been released. The lip, animated and composed by artist Saber, is far less scary than amusing. Until you realize that the vomit spit actually looks a bit like green hamburger relish.

Sabrina Carpenter: Taste | Island records

What are you saying? The only video on this list with a parental advisory is from the singer behind pop songs like Espresso? It's true. Starring Carpenter and the delightful Jenny Ortega, this clip is an extended gore-fest paired with a bouncy mid-tempo tune that gets a whole lot scarier when you dig a little deeper into the chilling verses, “You've just got to taste me when he kisses you.” and others immersed.

Carpenter brings the Short n' Sweet Tour to the Pacific Coliseum on November 4th.
