To not include the Misfits' "Halloween" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orC0etV91UQ ) in this list is sacrilege. Heck, even the Lemonheads cover of the Misfits' "Skulls" would have been good enough.

Due to differences in musical tastes I know that any music list I see is going to be disappointing. Due to my love of music I always get suckered into looking at them.

Wow. A whole bunch I didn't know about. Just spent an hour going through them. Thanks!

The best NEW one I've heard/seen in a while I found yesterday on an NPR All Songs Considered list. Called "My Reprieve". Artist is dogbrain. KILLER jazz/hop'y groove and really spooky as hell, as is the video: http://vimeo.com/31162588

The name Reba should never be around any list where the word "cool" is present.
