So let's start...

The Intro is magnificent and macabre, at the same time very interesting!!

The 2nd song is "Run Away". With his first chords you already realize that the Horror Punk is pure and great of this band, great vocals, and this double pedal that makes you listen to the song several times, very good!

The 3rd song is called "Jerusha". While listening you discovers the power of the band riffs and chords that come into your brain, vocal scarier, I loved this song, addicting!

The 4th song is called "Beetlejuice", well, the name says where it comes from, if you do not know, try searching. Great chorus, really addictive, great "Wooooooowwwwooo" amazing!!

5th song, "Jack in the Box", great relaxing music, a break from all this Horror Punk for the more melodic riffs and chords, was actually very good.

"Ghoul Shock" is the 6th song and also the album title, now turn to the heavy chords and fast, always amazing vocals, and loved the drums, fast and aggressive, big keyboard / organ in the background, actually combined with the song, too.

"Six Feet Down Under" the 7th song of this amazing album, the music has an individual intro that at the beginning you feel the full weight of the song, I love these chords hideous and frightening,

soil addictive, great! Actually, so far the whole album is great!

8th song "Angel From Hell", that I was amazed, gave me a shiver down my spine to hear the riff from the introduction, this is a song to dance with your girl and listen to those happy days, here is the music I liked the most !

"Love After Death" 9th song of the album so far enjoyed the album, the great energy of punk rock

is present throughout the album ... This song has a great combination with the vocals and instruments, loved the riffs and the chorus ghastly, amazing!

10th song "White To Red" loved the melody of the song, and the vocal was perfect, so do not criticize me (haha), but it was amazing and reminded me of the music of Bad Religion.

"Horror Movie Double Feature", 11th song of the Album. The song talks about Horror movies, as before, the vocals and music are perfectly matched, making the music so good, love those riffs and these pieces of music with "palm mute" very good.

"Behind The Wall" 12th Music, that the vocals are so flawless, fuck, the chorus is very good. ahhh these riffs ... Great music, you can hear it and start dancing!!

13th, last song "Under An Irish Attic" perfect, girls will love this song, so relaxing.

The Participation of this Girl in this song so calm and romantic, very good. And this song closes this album

sensational, spectacular of this German band, I hope you enjoyed the review, and listen to the band, you will like it very much !

Recommend !!!
