It’s the dance craze that became the hit of the land, but die-hard vampires may be asking: “What ever happened to my ‘Transylvania Twist’?” Well Drac, it’s now the Mash, and it’s here to stay.
Who would’ve thought what began one night in that laboratory would turn into the graveyard smash of the century. The song enters to the tune of a bubbling cauldron, in case you didn’t already know you were in for a spooky good time. Boris himself narrates the tune in a ghoulish refrain with help from certified coffin-bangers The Crypt-Kicker Five, a vocal group with some seriously haunting harmonies.
This was no ordinary party. The guest list included Wolfman, Dracula (and his son) as well as slough of Zombies who seemed to be having fun. While you can’t actually hear them on the song the whole party seemed to be diggin’ the sounds of Igor’s chains. In the words of Igor himself “Mash GOOD! Grrr!”
If you’re still up for partying this Halloween, we suggest you do the Mash. But please, Mash responsibly and don’t Mash and drive.
