All-Night Midnite Monster Party (Animated Video)
The original version of the song "All-Night Midnite Monster Party," from the album of the same name, was released a few years ago. At the time, I wasn't in the habit of making videos. I regretted that I never made a cool one for this song, because the lyrics feature so many things I like to draw, and also because it's just a fun song that deserves a video. So, since I'm in the middle of putting together the next album, I thought that now would be a great time to make a new video for an old track. I also remixed and remastered it. Exciting! For the visuals, I thought that it should look like the yellow and black All-Night Midnite Monster Party album cover, but animated. I wanted to feature a variety of weird monsters, and to keep things fresh, I asked my friends and fans to submit photos that I could draw in a monster style. Many of the monsters in this video are based on these photos. I am grateful for the submissions, and I hope people enjoy how they've been turned into freaky creatures. If you are in this video, leave a comment! Since I remixed and remastered the song for this video, I decided to release the audio as well. To make that release more enticing, I made a second remix (called "All-Night Midnite Monster Party in the Museum of the Weird"), and I also added every previously released mix of the song to form a little EP. The five track "All-Night Midnite Monster Party (A.D. 2026)" EP is now on streaming services. There is no physical release, but if you purchase it on Bandcamp, all proceeds go to LUCE Immigrant Justice Network of Massachusetts. Please consider doing so! The whole thing is just $2, but if you want to donate more, you can.

Lyrics: The monsters are restless The vampires thirst for fresh blood I think it's time for some new friends to enjoy our hospitality, our carnality And their own mortality Here's your invitation to the party of the year With all the monsters that you love, and all the ones you fear And you'll hear some screaming, and you'll see some things tonight You'll think of leaving, and you might just get a fright But you can't hide from the monsters you find inside Wolfman, Dracula, and the Bride of Frankenstein And the man with the X-ray eyеs Demon eyes arе watching you from wallpaper patterns across the room So try to relax and try to have fun Festivities have just begun Here's your invitation to the gala of the year The all night midnight monster party in the museum of the weird And I hear you screaming as you wander the catacombs You know you're dreaming if you think that you'll go back home You can't hide from the monsters you find inside Wolfman, Dracula, and the Bride of Frankenstein And the man with the X-ray eyes
