While readily acknowledging our debt to such bands as the Misfits, Samhain, and the Accused, we in Crimson Spectre also align ourselves with a dissident aesthetic most visible, in this country, in the horror films of the past thirty years, where - to quote Lenin - the "Aesopian language" of zombies, cannibalism, chainsaw massacres, monster babies, demonic possession, and hockey-masked serial killers has provided allegorical embodiment for social critiques and political analyses otherwise considered too volatile for the pop-culture arena.

“Horror is everywhere around us: horrors of war, horrors of occupation, horrors of poverty, horrors of social injustice. A ghoul-punk aesthetic is one strategy among many a band might employ to draw attention to this collective political nightmare and to articulate it in a highly-stylized and accessible form. It might also be the most fun. While readily acknowledging debt to such bands as the Misfits, Samhain, and the Accused, Crimson Spectre also align themselves with a dissident aesthetic most visible, in this country, in the horror films of the past thirty years, where - to quote Lenin - the "Aesopian language" of zombies, cannibalism, chainsaw massacres, monster babies, demonic possession, and hockey-masked serial killers has provided allegorical embodiment for social critiques and political analyses otherwise considered too volatile for the pop-culture arena. Because the ruling class chooses to dress up stark imperialism in a rhetoric of righteousness, self-defense, and pseudo-Christianity, labeling anyone who opposes its amoral profiteering an "evil-doer" or worse, Crimson Spectre eagerly adopts the iconography of Evil and is proud to point out that its members form, at all times, the five points of a human pentagram.” Yes, please bring on the evil.
