Frankenstein represents some of the best material from the original Universal Monsters run.
Considering it came out just a few years after feature length talkies were even a thing, the plot moves at a swift pace, and never gets boring. We know all that we need to about the characters involved with no unnecessary padding out, and boasts wonderful dialogue that is engaging throughout
What's more, it's runtime is brimming with incredible shots, from Frankenstein and the monster on top of the mountain, to the monster accepting a flower from a little girl, to the mob of townspeople marching towards the windmill (a shot that has always stuck with me since being a child).

Frankenstein is a fantastic realisation of the misunderstood beast narrative, and an incredibly important stepping stone in the history of horror. Iconic in every way.

"This compilation is like plugging into a direct line to your 15-year-old self. And somewhere in there is me right now. It sounds strange because I'm now 50, but it never really leaves you. It's just weird how that can energise you. Even for music that's not like it. I can put this on and it's like it gives me power, almost like turning on the batteries. Of course, we don't sound like a punk rock band from '77, but it has that energy that's universal and you form it into where you're going musically. I put this album on the list because it's a power source that got me through a lot of these recordings, and strangely enough I sound nothing like it. Punk rock is the hydrochloric acid where you get that frothy explosion in the beaker."
