Boo!

Happy Halloween! For a bit of background, the holiday originates from the pagen holiday Samhain, from the Celts in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The name Halloween actually comes from All-Hallow-Even, which really means that it's the night before All Hallow's Day, aka All Saint's Day. In Mexico, the next couple of days are called Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. Lots of people know the day when free candy is given out.
So, to celebrate:

Devils

The Devil Never Sleeps - Iron & Wine
Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones
Devil Went Down to Georgia - Charlie Daniels Band
Saint Augustine in Hell - Sting

Ghosts

The Ghost of You Lingers - Spoon
Ghost Story - Sting

Is There A Ghost - Band of Horses

And the rest...

Band of Horses just released the video for their latest single, Is There A Ghost?

Kinda amusing one...

New Music This Week

A couple of new albums were released this week, from two bands that I've listened to and enjoyed:

Beirut - Flying Cup Club

The followup to the fantastic Gulag Orkestar, their first album, Beirut is back with another cool album with their brilliant background music, trumpets and vocals.

Band of Horses - Cease to Begin

Band of Horses is also back with a followup sophtmore album, Cease To Begin. I've only listened to a handful of these guy's songs, but this one sounds pretty good.
