Stiltwalkers -
'12 More Hours Of The Dead' (CD EP)
_
Christmas may not seem like the perfect time of the year to recieve a new ep from Belfasts own darkwave superstars "Stiltwalkers" , equal parts claustrophobic fear & heartfelt passion "12 more hours of the dead" is not a barrel of fake laughs but this will be the perfect hardcore electro soundtrack to your gothic black yuletide party. Don't be fooled by the big business hype instructing you to be jolly and spend spend spend because christmas does have its dark side , the 'Dickensian' view isn't all fairylights and tinsel. Play this disc very loudly and scare the frozen crap out of your friends and neighbours ,while doing every right thinking person a favour by drowning out the neverending seasonal torture inflicted on the masses by Mariah Carey, Billy Idol and Cliff Richard etc . This is a fantastically twisted piece of work,"Stiltwalkers are coming to get you! "so block up that chimney and 'be afraid' ,'be very afraid' .

Big thanks to Joe for the review. Just wanna say that I love this EP. I think this was originally intended for Halloween but lends itself equally well to the festive season. This would make a great horror movie soundtrack - when I listen to it, the vampire movie 30 Days Of Night automatically springs to mind. But it would work equally as well with the more recent Xmas horror movie Saint. Scary stuff indeed - keep up the good work Des & Mike.
