CRIMSON SPECTRE, is a ghoul punk band from Greensboro, North Carolina. We started as a one-show only Misfits covers band for Halloween 1999. One year later, we re-formed to write original music which combines the horror punk aesthetic with a political perspective. 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.
