We have a new music video! But first, Death has holiday cheer (?) to share.
¡Feliz Día de los Muertos! Happy Halloween!
This is (quite obviously) our mascot Death’s favorite holiday.
Here are a few of the very cool links Death has collected for you to “get in the spirit”.
• The Victoria and Albert Museum unpack several antique “memento mori” pieces – rare, strange and fascinating:
• The new Guinness Book of Records winner of tallest “Catrina” is now on display in Zócalo square in Ciudad de Mexico. She stands at 33 meters = almost 110 feet !
• Oakland has a new, beautiful Catrina on display
• Lastly, designer Alexander McQueen forms a slinky dress from handcrafted crochet skulls. The skull shape is a super simple crochet pattern that one can find anywhere. The fancy touch here is the metallic thread and bead accents.
New Video — a timely dose of positive energy
I’ve been fretting and fuming about the state of affairs for a long time. Perhaps some of you feel as frustrated as I do. Well, existential angst be damned! Enough with the dreary feelings of powerlessness. I truly believe that we have what we need to set a better course. And, that is what this tune is about, besides being decidedly dance-inducing.
Crank up the volume and shake off the gloom!
For a hi-fi audio file head over to our BandCamp: “We’ve Got What It Takes”
If you haven’t already, please subscribe to our YouTube channel.
As always, more tunes are coming and I’m plotting and planning our 2027 appearances. You’ll be the first to know.
Stay safe. Stay musical.
Luv ya,
Mags
