Songs from the Earth
Songs From the Earth is the first album by horror punk/deathrock supergroup Son of Sam. The album was a tribute to Glenn Danzig's former band Samhain, though there are no cover songs on the album. Danzig himself plays backup guitar on "Stray," and plays backup guitar and keyboards on the title track "Songs from the Earth."[3] Allmusic notes "Evernight" as sounding like 'Sonic Youth-like art noise' and the title track as being 'very much in the classic Misfits vein.'[4] The album closer "Invocation" bears similarity to the Danzig song of the same name from the album Danzig 4.[1]

gollark: There are proposals to use lasers in spacecraft propulsion in various ways.
gollark: Is that *safe*?
gollark: Not really. YouTube use base-64-with-underscores-and-dashes video IDs.
gollark: For how well you see it, yes, but IIRC for laser-related eye damage it's just too much energy focused on a small spot, and that damages eye bits.
gollark: ~~For eye damage IIRC color does not really have an effect.~~update: I'm wrong, apparently.
