Ah yes another Friday another five tracks, as we are near All Hallows Eve some of the tracks on today are somewhat linked with Halloween.
5. Lordi- Devil is a Loser
Finland's monster metal group, look like they're permanently dressed in their Halloween costumes (which look remarkably well made and are infact made by Mr. Lordi and his wife) this track highlights Lordi's as a non-satanic band (refering to the devil as Lordi's 'bitch')
4. X-Japan- I.V.
This track was featured in the film Saw IV and features some guitar tracks from their lead guitarist Hide who died in 1998, this song marked the first time the band had released a song since their disbandment in 1997. The video even features Hide's guitar on stage with the band and footage of Hide performing as he had a cult status amongst his fans.
3. SpeakLOW- Thriller
All this week on KCC Live we have been doing a competition which involved listeners phoning in whenever they heard Michael Jackson's Thriller. This version of the classic track is completely instrumental and sounds like a cross between Thriller, the theme tune of Shaft and Billie Jean. SpeakLOW are from Spain.
2. Gackt- Journey Through The Decade
The opening theme tune to Kamen Rider: Decade (Masked Rider Decade) both Gackt and the Kamen Rider Heisei era were celebrating their 10th annivarsaries though Kamen Rider Decade is actually the tenth series of the Kamen Rider Heisei series which began in 2000 and Gackt was in the group Malice Mizer from 1995 before becoming a solo performer in 1999. The song has some of the plot elements of Kamen Rider Decade including how the main character has to take a journey through 9 worlds and that he is a photographer.

1. Muse- Knights of Cydonia [Live]
Muse's Spaghetti Western space song in its full glory, live. The song has a more anthemic feel to it played live and the galloping drums and bass and to hear Wembley sing the lyrics gives a great atmosphere to the song.
