Wednesday 13’s Halloween treat

Wednesday 13 has offered an exclusive “Horror-day” track to mark Halloween – and it won’t appear on his upcoming sixth album.

Trick Or Treat… We’re Going To Kill You is available now as a single digital download and won’t appear in any other format.

13 says: “Since we’re not performing anywhere this year, we decided we’d give you a brand-new Halloween song instead. It’s here as a Horror-day exclusive.”

He’s gearing up for a series of acoustic shows in the US next month, before launching Monsters Of The Universe: Come Out And Plague early next year. He’s described the work as “a sci-fi horror story that will be the most unique Wednesday 13 album to date.” He adds: “I wouldn’t even compare it to anything I’ve done in the past.”

A limited edition of 900 vinyl copies will be on sale alongside the standard release.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
