Tone Deaf has just published the track list and a Vimeo video of a mix tape created by Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain in 1988 entitled "Montage of Heck". According to the article, the mix is "a creepy 36-minute production from the young mind of Cobain, which was pieced together a full year before Nirvana's debut release Bleach". Creepy? Genius is more like it!

Happy Halloween! Here's a CJLO Ghost Story

With Halloween just days away, it’s time to settle in for some cold nights and some good horror. While you can never quite go wrong with classics of the genre, whether Universal monsters, 80s slasher or contemporary torture porn, part of fear and part of horror is diving into the unknown.

Maybe it’s the history of surviving the unknown and often frightening elements, as well as the detached sense of dislocated identity associated with being so close to United States.

The fact that I came back alive should not be taken as disparagement.
