Ireland is in it's 2nd lock down phase (Oct-December 2020) therefore we've recorded our second lock-down project as a Halloween treat.
We're big Zevon fans and we've been mulling over various tracks of his to cover for some years now and felt the time was right to let rip with this festive favourite!
As before individual tracks were performed and recorded remotely and then send to Dublin to be mixed and mastered.
Recorded by The Magnapinna.
Locations: Ballyhooly, Cobh, Coolock, Coomkeen, Passage West
Mixed & Mastered by Ed Grannell at the G-Unit studio, Dublin.
Players: C Carley, D Howard, Mr. E Blunden, J Grannell, M Jordan.
We do not own the music in recording. All music is owned and copyright of Warren Zevon, or the estate thereof.
I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain
He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's
Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
You hear him howling around your kitchen door
You better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
He's the hairy-handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
You better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Aaoooooo
Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a piña colada at Trader Vic's
And his hair was perfect
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Draw blood
Aaoooooo
Werewolves of London
Songwriters: Warren Zevon / Leroy P. Marinell / Robert T. Wachtel

This is one of the most exciting young bands out there for me, and this album displays their entire range. How they can break from a tight riff into wild spurts of chaos only to suddenly strip it back to a danceable groove, how the music can be heartwrenchingly beautiful one second and unapologetically fun the next - it's all nothing short of amazing, and the stellar performances of every single member make this a joy to listen to every time. cluster
The Australian post-punk outfit's second album courses with unkempt kinetic energy, full of spring-tight basslines and hypnotic riffs. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 8, 2024
