I just heard their new album SpookyWonderland and at first I didn't like it but after a couple of times I came to really like it. I sort of disliked La Dance Macabre when it was released but the new version on this record was pretty good^^ And Alice became a favorite, it's really awesome.

That was my first thought too when I heard it, then I found myself playing some songs in my head and now I'm sort of brainwashed XD I think I'm going to buy it, since it's not too expensive.... + limited edition stuff turnes me on XD

The album is fantastic! The instrumentals are cute, and suit their image well (my favorite is Kill me), the new songs are fantastic! Alice won't get out of my head, and Living dead is awesome. The remakes are certainly an improvement; Jack's english is much better in Prince of Darkness lol And of course, the Nightmare Before Christmas is fabulous. It was only a matter of time before TCST did a cover of the song <3

I found the new album had to grow on me, but then all their releases had. I enjoyed it, though I notice they have another guitarist since I last looked, they get through them so quickly these last few years ::shifty::

I don't know about this band anymore... I really enjoyed their music up to and including the compilation album from Germany, but after that, it's been a real downhill spiral...

What IS really interesting though (for all those fans of どろろ) is that the original guys who made the music have restarted the band! The vocalist originally left and was replaced by Jack Spooky and the music went all Candy Spooky Theater (and one of the demo tapes later because some classic TCST songs) and then the guitarist left and the band changed their name. Now, something like 10 years later, they've restarted the band, ignoring all the stuff with Jack Spooky and Peggy Giggles.

More information here (but in Japanese)

Somebody's blog

They released a CD with new versions of 不幸の手紙 and 赤い靴の少女連続誘拐事件, and I'm dying to hear this CD~

For the people who are interested, The Candy Spooky Theater has paused activities as of 6/6/2014, after holding their final concert at Takadanobaba Area (THE END of spook show 2014). To be completely honest, I'm surprised this band lasted as long as it did. Regardless, they had some songs I truly enjoyed over their run and I will miss them.

That's a shame. Still, they did indeed last a long time :(

For people who are interested, Jack Spooky is in a new band, THE END. They look cool, but since Jack Spooky is the only one who bothered to put on makeup, he looks very out of place... I'll give it a chance :) Hi-Na from Satan is in it though... So there's a strike against it...
