The FIENDFORCE horror punk bloody music explosion
FANGORIA
Just like punk rock. Horrorpunk will hide its political and social side beneath a horror story but will address these themes as well. POLINA: Do you think a horror movie fan would like horrorpunk bands even if they never heard of it or even punk music before?THORSTEN: Good question. After attending a lot of horror movie conventions I found out that a lot of the fans there do listen to alternative music be it metal goth or punk. Horrorpunk and even Psychobilly are new genres to most of these people though but especially Horrorpunk is getting more and more attention. I think that?s because we take the horror as a lifestyle and as something meaningful. Horrorpunk bands don?t just sing about blood and guts but take the whole cultural aspect and the history into account.
The Idolator Interview: Butch Walker And Patrick Stump
Idolator NY
After the jump the two have a friendly chat about first concerts free stuff and how each developed his signature singing style. BUTCH: When I first saw you sing with Fall Out Boy you were much younger and were singing pretty damn good for then but you have since evolved into a much more soulful voice for the band. Did you always want that but took time and maturing to grow into that kind of singer? Or did you sing for the genre when you were younger? Did you always grow up listening to soul singers?PATRICK: When I started it was in the hardcore scene which was very accepting of our band as people but barely accepting of pop-punk music in the first place. We were too heavy for the pop-punk kids too happy for the emo kids and too light for the hardcore kids. So I feel in retrospect A) it was fear of being accepted and B) simple inexperience. I think I’ve been able to sing a lot of this stuff for a long time but just too much a wuss to do it in front of people. As for soul music from the start of my career as a singer I’d always looked to soul singers as the be all and end all.
Punk Rock & Trailer Parks — new from Derf

It’s a tale as gritty raucous and bawdy as punk music itself. “Having missed those punk-rock glory days by just a couple years I’ll look forward to experiencing them vicariously through Derf’s book. That Christmas I spent in the trailer park though? That’s another story.
