6) Kids Like Us, “Motherfuck Crystal Lake”

“I don’t know about you, but we got some killing to do. Cabin fever!” A 56 second track framed by two separate Friday the 13th samples, this quick hardcore song is from Mrs. Voorhees’ perspective, speaking to Jason.

 

 

7) Murderdolls, “The Devil Made Me Do It”

If you’d like to hear the sample of Axel Burns screaming, “Holy Jesus Goddamn, Holy Jesus jumping Christmas shit!” at the end of a heavy metal song, this is the track for you.

 

 

8) Poison the Well, “Crystal Lake”

This particularly awesome tune is from the perspective of Jason Voorhees himself, getting ready to kill. Lyrics include “My scenery is lakes and trees/I just can’t keep all concrete. Two round holes cut into this fabric/And I will slide it over my head”.

 

9) The Cure, “The 13th”

This is one of the weirder songs I’ve heard by The Cure, and obviously that’s saying something. It features a lot of mariachi style instrumentation and is upbeat in a kind of creepy way. It seems to personify the superstition of Friday the 13th in the form of a woman.
