Canada's The Birthday Massacre have served up yet another deliciously danceable delight to spice up your night at a Goth club, at private parties, or even just an enjoyable evening at home. This is a Darkwave/EBM treat! "Kill the Lights" is an interesting mix of stunningly beautiful ethereal musicianship pitted against lyrics that are just the opposite - morose and devoid of hope. "Science" is about calculated control over others, and it does just that as it compels listeners to join in the dance. "Movie" embraces the future while saying farewell to the past. "Red Stars" screams for attention - and gets it. (Athena)

Weird Stats and Morbid Facts

• In November 2004, 54 year old Geraldine Kelley made a deathbed confession that the husband she had always claimed died in a 1991 car crash, was in fact "in storage." Her statement led police to his dismembered remains, sealed in a bin at a Somerville, Massachusetts self-storage facility.


• Tobe Hooper claims that he got the idea for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre while walking through the hardware section of a department store crowded with Christmas shoppers.


• In South Africa, it was not uncommon for the bodies of soldiers who fought in the Boer War to be exhumed by witch doctors, who used the bones for black magic purposes.


• The term "omaphagist" is used to describe someone who eats raw meat.


• One of the filming locations for Stephen King's The Stand television miniseries was the State Utah Prison, which temporarily moved a whole wing of inmates to allow the crew to shoot in the facility.


• Perilaus, the Greek who invented the Brazen Bull torture device - where a victim is stuffed into the body of a brass bull before a fire is lit beneath it - was also the first to suffer inside the device.
