list compiled by Steven E. Wedel
When I asked my longtime friend and fellow horror author Steve Wedel if he'd do us the honor of putting together a Horror Playlist for this month's issue, I had a pretty good idea it would include lots of 70s and 80s metal and that it would most definitely kick ass. Well, I wasn't disappointed on either respect. Following you will find a top 13 albums from Steve and to be sure it has been turned all the way up to 11!
1. KISS- "Rock and Roll Over" (1976)
2. KISS- "Destroyer" (1976)
3. Meat Loaf- "Bat Out of Hell" (1977)
4. AC/DC- "Back in Black" (1980)
5. AC/DC- "Highway to Hell" (1979)
6. Black Sabbath- "Heaven and Hell" (1980)
7. Judas Priest- "Screaming for Vengeance" (1982)
