Buzz Records and Indie 88 presented A Very Special Krampus Party at entertainment complex and new music venue The Rec Room on December 9. It featured headliners Charly Bliss along with the incredible Casper Skulls, Twist and Lonely Parade.

I've seen Toronto post-punk band Casper Skulls a few times now, and I like them more and more with each listening. I'm loving their latest album Mercy Works and I'm sure it will make it onto my best of list for this year.

I first saw Casper Skulls at The Garrison opening for Screaming Females in 2015. Roy Cohen caught them at Lee's Palace in 2016. I then saw them at CMW 2017 at Lee's Palace. Click through on those venue names to see those pics.

This time my expectations were raised and I still came away impressed. Not much more I can say about this band's powerful and gigantic sounding songs, strong melodies and always greater intensity that I haven't already said before. Listen to them. Go see them. Buy their music. Love them.
