**** yes on Hail Spirit Noir. All three of their albums have been getting quite a bit of play in the last few months.

I have yet to dive into their most recent. The first two however are fantastic. Love the sound those guys put out.

If you wanna listen to better horrorcore (didn't even know Hollywood Undead qualified) then check out old Esham. Horrorcore has a pretty shallow pool of worthwhile artists, and it took me a bit to be able to get into Esham, but he's pretty ****ing nice. He kinda maybe invented the genre to boot.

I'll put it on the list. Thanks for the rec. Horrorcore is far from my type of music, but this is not bad so I'll still give it a shot.
