The Rebel Black Dot Hallowe'en Song of the Day



Beirut, "In the Mausoleum" from The Flying Club Cup (The Last Angry Man)

Commentary: "In the Mausoleum" isn't particularly Hollowe'en themed, except that the lyrics do reference being in one's own mausoleum. Beyond that, the music & vocals are eerie enough for our purposes, recalling to my mind Sufjan Stevens's "They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbors!! They Have Come Back from the Dead!! Ahhhh!," one of the all-time great Hallowe'en R.B.D.S.O.T.D.
