This album is fairly new to me but must admit it’s death by disco: cowboy edition

This Party’s Dead is a book, unsurprisingly, about death, and whilst it sounds like it’ll be depressing, it’s anything but that. The book follows the author, Erica Buist, as she visits seven death festivals around the world. There is a reason: after her father-in-laws death where he was left in his house for a week before he was found, Erica experiences great anxiety, feeling ill-equipped to deal with the whole idea of death. She suffers with her mental health, so decides that she needs to do something to confront her fears surrounding death. She has lived in Mexico, so has some knowledge of the Day of the Dead, and this leads her to research other death celebrations .
It’s absolutely fascinating: we in the West have a very sanitised attitude towards death, and the cultures and countries that Erica visited couldn’t have been more different. It’s quite a sobering read in places, but there is a healthy dose of humour as well. It’s a really accessible, interesting and engrossing read. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Many thanks to The Pigeonhole for serialising this, and to Erica Buist for joining in.

A slasher type film with a difference, Death himself stalks those who should have died.

A pretty good sequel dealing with near death experiences it has a good twist if not groundbreaking.
