Macabre Minstrels: Morbid Campfire Songs
CD, Season of Mist 2003
Track list: Tom Dooley - The Geins - In the Mountains - The Cat Came Back - Found a Peanut
Macabre Minstrels is a side project of death metal band Macabre. The guys play classic Shel Silverstein melodies with acoustic guitars, enhancing the songs with new lyrics about death, serial killers and other macabre dealings. The result is a short but entertaining album. I like it, but I'm not sure who else will enjoy it. All Macabre fans won't, that's for sure. ***

Quite a lovely album i must say.I'm not a fan of Macabre's regular music but this album is quite the contrary,obviously.
"The Geins" and "The Cat Came Back" are my favorite tracks by far.Giving the listener good "audio imagery"...well at least it did for me heh.
