Sorry to say it, but there will be no revelation of deep esoteric wisdom in this week’s entry in our Monday Magick series. The only thing this week’s feature, “Pentagram” from Cake’s 1994 debut album ‘Motorcade of Generosity’, has to offer is good old fashioned goofy fun! A throwback to[…]
After a couple of off weeks I “had to find that feelin’ again” to get Monday Magick back on track this week. To that end, I went back to basics with some good old fashioned diabolical Rock & Roll in the form of “The Beast and the Dragon, Adored” from[…]
This week’s Monday Magick entry is one of my favorite songs from an artist I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with. The tune in question is the futuristic Funk jam “Twinkle” by Neo-Soul high-pristess Erykah Badu from her 2008 LP ‘New Amerykah, Pt. 1: 4th World War’. As[…]
This week’s Monday Magick entry is a rare contribution from the West Indies, a location not necessarily known for embracing the supernatural in its popular music. The tune in question is an energetic 1975 side with the incendiary title “King From Hell” which comes courtesy of Trinidadian calypsonian The Mighty[…]
This week’s Monday Magick entry is what some might call a “hidden jem” or “dusty classic” from one of the great “lost albums” of the Psychadelic era. “Devil and the Sea” is probably one the least wigged-out tracks from the decidedly occult-tinged self-titled 1968 debut from freaked out Los Angeles[…]
Monday Magick goes back to the vinyl archives this week to unearth a rare jam that mixes The Devil with funky Disco music. It’s a lengthy dancefloor stomper from Chicago-bred percussionist, singer, and producer Peter Brown’s 1977 TK Records debut ‘A Fantasy Love Affair’ titled “Do You Wanna Get Funky[…]
This week’s Monday Magick entry, “In Ancient Days” by Black Widow, was inspired by a brief mention of the band alongside occult-rockers Coven in Peter Bebergal’s new book on popular music and the esoteric ‘Season of the Witch: How the Occult Saved Rock and Roll’. The tune comes from the[…]
After an extended hiatus for the holidays Monday Magick is back with our first ever entry from the Disco era, C.J. & Co.’s certified Club Classic, “Devil’s Gun”. While not explicitly occult in content, any Soul, Funk, R&B, or Disco song that name-checks The Fallen One is certainly a rarity.[…]
It doesn’t really get more blatantly occult than this week’s Monday Magick entry, “Devil’s Son”, courtesy of Harlem native and Diggin’ In The Crates crew ambassador Lamont “Big L” Coleman. The tune was originally intended to be featured on the emcee’s 1995 debut ‘Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous’ and[…]
Our Labor Day candidate for Monday Magick, “Dark Horse” by Katy Perry featuring former Three 6 Mafia frontman Juicy J, is probably a surprise to some. But I totally meant to share this video when it debuted several month ago. After all, there’s a whole YouTube cottage industry of conspiracy[…]
This looks goddamn incredible! Director Adrian Garcia Bogliano’s ’70s-style, Satanic, psycho-sexual, blood-and-fuck-flick ‘Here Comes the Devil’ hits theatres and VOD on December 13th. Whatever you do, do NOT watch this trailer any where NEAR work. ‘Here Comes the Devil’ @ MAGNET Releasing
