This is the last Halloween post from me today! Sorry for all the maddening posts, but the Halloween news flows fast and furious.

First of all, Epitaph sent in this press release for Tim Fite:

Brooklyn-based multi-genrist Tim Fite will release a new free, Halloween-centric recording via his website on October 31st, 2008. Available for one day only, the innovative song cycle entitled ding dong Ditch comes at the culmination of his tour with Man Man and will be celebrated with a special Halloween show at the Starlight Ballroom in Philadelphia.

Of course, I clicked on the “Trick” part to get “Raisins”.

The two EPs, Ding Dong DITCH (2008) and It’s Only Ketchup (2007) proved too experimental for me. If you like that sort of thing, you should check it out.

Bruce Springsteen is also in the giving mood, with this free bluesy recording of “Night with the Jersey Devil”.

He previously invited people to trick-or-treat at his home in Rumson, but then canceled it due to safety concerns.

Dear Friends and Fans,

If you grew up in central or south Jersey, you grew up with the “Jersey Devil.” Here’s a little musical Halloween treat. Have fun!

You can download the free song today and tomorrow only at brucespringsteen.net

Finally, courtesy of Bar None Records are three songs from their catalogue of artist: Greg Camp’s “Zombies on Parade”, Hot Lava’s “Mummy Beach”, and Starling Electric’s “Black Ghost/Black Girl”.

Of the three songs, I thought Hot Lava was the best. It feels very indiepop.

That’s it for now, if you have more Halloween-type songs, well, there’s always next year.
