Gimme a sign that you're still on the line I can't leave you behind, is there something malign? I got chills on my spine, am I losing my mind Tonight!?
@@theonlyvampirateable Plots really not all that bad little repetitive but not bad. Plus I'm a massive Lovecraft fan so it's cool to feel like your part of his lore.
I LOVE TDOTHT!The invigorating, engaging music, the HPL-theme: Amazing. As a bonus, scant but intriguing evidence suggesting that the lead singer is the bro' of of Life Sex & Death's singer: Their similar appearance, energy and the fact that they perform a song VERY similar to LSD's hit "I'm a Tank" entitled "In My Tank". Anyway: TDOTHT = very worthwhile music. Thanks 4 posting!
I'm high right now and stumbled onto this song via discovery mix. And I got chills in my spine when i heard this song. I'm 33 and grew up on grunge and 90s/2000s music. Needless to say I thought I heard it all. This song is fucking amazing. I am a new fan and will be diving deeper into this band. A shame this song isn't more popular.
@@thedarkestofthehillside it's a random playlist curated to my musical playlist history, I think. I was using Amazon Prime Music when I stumbled onto this amazing ass song.
that is a thing of unmentionable-ness- poor randolph- i must say that the gelatinous voice bit always made me giggle, to have it in singable form is a dream come true

You guys have no idea how happy I was to discover your music on spotify. I saw you live a couple times back in the early 2000s, but never had a chance to buy one of your albums. Listening to your stuff now really brings me back. If you guys still sell merch drop a link I'd love to show my support.
HP Lovecraft was on vacation in a town which consisted of a port, a small forest, some farmland and an Inn, in which is was staying. He'd been recommended the inn by a close friend a few months earlier, and although the friend had been struck busy as of late, he had still resolved to go to see what it had to offer. One morning he decided to go out for a walk in the grove, and was shocked to see the trees, rather than being healthy and thriving, were dry and hollow. Lovecraft was terrified, and immediately began looking around for what supernatural could have caused the foliage to become husks of its former self. Looking around, he saw nothing, not even a stray rat from the local town, let alone any deer or other smaller animals. Unnerved by the strange state of the forests foliage, he sought out the huntsman of the village for help figuring out what was going on. When he finally found him in the tavern, HP saw he had a strange, vacant look in his eye. The huntsmen looked gaunt, like he hasn't eaten properly in months, with greying skin, bagging around the features of his face. "What's wrong with your forest?", Lovecraft asked. The huntsman replied angrily, "I DON'T WORK WIT' THE FOREST ANYMORE! LEAVE ME AND GO BACK TO WHERE YE CAME FROM" in a drunken stupor. Lovecraft backed away slowly, scared to provoke the huntsman any further and draw attention to himself for whatever conspiracy was obviously playing out here. He returned to his rented room and waited, drinking only the bottled water he had bought to the town with him in his pack. Obviously, he reasoned, there must be some contaminant turning the forest live dry and crunchy, and the men aggressive and worn. He waited tirelessly until nightfall, when the inhabitants of the cursed village would surely be asleep, and used the inns phone to contact the friend who had recommended him the place. After moments of trepidation, his friend picked up the phone, groggy over the hour of the call. Before he could say anything, Lovecraft interjected. "I'm all alone near a forest of no loam, I saw a huntsman of who I could not tell and then he pleaded that I beat it home!", Lovecraft explained. There is one thing Lovecraft would never forget, the reply from his friends voice, the reply, the reply: "You fool! The warren is dead!"

Harley Warren: *dying horribly under a crypt with unspeakable horrors around him*
This song: *upbeat vibing*
It's what we're about!
Funky and upbeat, like Scooby Doo crossed over with unfiltered Lovecraftian horror.
No! Not Warren! He didn't have a chance to pick up the latest Darkest of the Hillside Thickets album. The poor bastard.
Dukes of Alhazred might be the greatest fucking album title I've ever heard
When I read the story I cry cuz I feel bad for Warren, when I listen to this I cry because this is a masterpiece
As a huge Lovecraft fan, and a rock fan I'm so happy I found this.
An unholy grail if there ever was! :D
@@sgtpepper3161 this bands album is going into a delta green or a pulp Cthulhu game, might use the band as the pc
Just discovered this. Hello from the U.K. 👍🏻
You combined my love of H.P Lovecraft and cowbell perfectly.
You guys rock! 🤘
no, it needs more cowbell
it ALWAYS needs more cowbell
I’ve been thinking this over for about a decade, and I’m certain the thickets are the greatest band in the history of rock and roll
Gimme a sign that you're still on the line
I can't leave you behind, is there something malign?
I got chills on my spine, am I losing my mind
Tonight!?
Yes I am losing my mind tonight!
Been playing the sinking city and this album and Cthulhu strikes back has been my in game travel music.
I'm sorry you've been subjected to that horrible game

@@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf I absolutely love Lovecraft, but that game was extremely disappointing to me
Best thing I have ever discovered on RUclips.
Definitely my favorite album cover
Doop, is that you?
The title of the album really got me giggling.
You were my second favourite member of X-Statix.
Skeletor: "You Fool! HE MAN IS DEAD!"
I can't stop singing this song. ❤❤❤❤
the statement of randolph carter is my favourite lovecraftian tale !
Excellent choice!
SAME 🌹
First one of Lovecraft's works I read and it hooked me immediately
Good one, but mine is honestly Thing on the Doorstep.
You guys rock so hard I feel all squamous inside!
holy shit this is too good to be true
Sweet-ass cowbell ghoul action.
Damn, that's good. I can't wait to get my copy of the full album next week.
Such a well put together song. Bravo.

This song needs a video!!!!
Applied for a grant for a stop-motion animated video, but were rejected
I didn't know they had a new album. This is pretty cool.

This band definitely needs more love from the world (at least until Azathoth devours it).
Loved reading the story for the RadioFree Innsmouth "Lovecraft Time" program... Hearing this tune is a kick!

This song is such a banger

oh my god a new album, this is excellent
that is a rad cover, I love it.
More Cthulhubell!
Love it! I'll be pouncing on a copy of the record, for sure. Come visit us in Calgary, won't you?
Love Home Movies, have the full set on DVD.
Me, too! If you guys tackled a cover of Brendan Small's 'Don't Put Marbles in Your Nose', that would really make my day.
AWESOME SONG!!!!!!!!!!!
Discovered y’all through HP Lovecraft Literary Podcast and “Nyarlathotep” … never disappointed.
You're not a true Lovecraft fan if you've never listened to at least one of these songs before.
Gatekeeping is only allowed by Yog-Sothoth, for he is the key and the gate
@@thedarkestofthehillside Oh, whoops. Sorry.
Still love this track :)
Liked and shared!
That is not dead which can eternal ROCK!
One of my favorite novels ;)
Novel? The story is only a few pages long.
@@multismashify Don't belittle his reading level, alright?
@@HandOfThemis Okie doke.
@@multismashify lol
The fact no one has disliked this video yet shows how awesome this bands music is
That is not dead which can eternal lie, and in even the strangest of aeons, rock and roll will never die.
this is CYCLOPEAN yo
So when are you guys playing in Florida?

Yo! Thank you! I didn't know you guys had a store!
This song needs more cowbell.
How about a U.K. tour... just saying , no pressure like.
would love these albums on vinyl
Someone get horrorbabble
I like how we're all just ignoring the fact that Lovecraft used "Harley" as a first name more than half a century before Paul Dini invented Ms. Quinn.
Unliked, so I could like again.
Yoooo lovecraft Ozzie Osborne is mad
L
I would have called this band Cthulfoo Fighters
