It’s a great question, or more precisely, two great questions, because time-consuming and hard aren’t necessarily the same things." 📖 Read more here.

We’re called, “Music Analysts,” though that makes us sound either like music industry speculators or white-coated lab techs monitoring oscilloscopes with medical-grade headphones."  📖 Read more here.   Horror Rock by @EricPandora  "During this autumnal, candy-corned season of Samhain, I like to dim the lights and listen to all the “graveyard smashes” that I grew up on. But I also indulge in some horror rock. Not to be confused with gothic rock or "goth," (although it should be noted that some of today’s goth bands like Vision Video are really stepping it up, horror-wise), horror rock has existed nearly as long as rock 'n' roll has. Inspired by horror films and comic books as well as by the Halloween holiday, horror rock is often regarded as "shock rock" and many music historians credit Screamin’ Jay Hawkins as the very first shock rocker. He had a hit in 1956 with “I Put A Spell on You” and he would emerge from a coffin during his live performances that included smoke bombs going off as he howled into a skull-shaped microphone." 📖 Read more here.  Pandora Picks: October 2024 by @EricPandora and team "Harvest moons, costume parties, cheap candy, scary movies, pumpkin carving... what's not to love about October?
