It's Not All Gumdrops & Unicorns

How's it going my gumdrops? As some of you already know, I have a blog and I'm friends with some people on Horror-Punks.com. Today I have decided to go the Horror-Punk route.

Not too many people are familiar with the Horror-Punk band called, Others. They are NOT to be confused with another band called, "The Others." Others is a Binghamton, NY band that formed in 2002.

According to the band, they cite Danzig, Misfits, Type O Negative, Cradle of Filth, and Marilyn Manson as their musical influences. Throughout the last 13 years, Others have 15 independent releases and counting, including their most recent single, "A Coming Storm." That's along with being included on various album compilations and several films. They even created the 2 short films, Under the Sunset and Broken Vessels.

In 2009, Others won at the International Haunted Horror Film Fest. Under the Sunset won for Best Horror Musical and Broken Vessels won Best Music Video & Horror Band. Both of these shorts are available on DVD.

Others continue to evolve in their sound by creating different concepts, stories, and atmospheres for each album. They claim to "bring their own eclectic blend of Gothic, horror & metal to the fold, creating vivid nightmare scenes."

This week, I suppose you can say, that I'm keeping it short and not so sweet. Here is Others with "Hello Darkness" and "A Coming Storm."

1) Others "Hello Darkness" Hello Darkness (2010)

2) Others "A Coming Storm" Our Hearts Turn Black (2013)
