"Halloween" (B-side "Saturday Night Holocaust") is the seventh and final single by the Dead Kennedys . It was released in December of 1982 on Alternative Tentacles . The lyrics use the metaphor of a Halloween party to address the theme of human responses to Nonconformity .The song is from the album Plastic Surgery Disasters the Dead Kennedys second album. "Saturday Night Holocaust" is a song comparing drug-filled disco culture in the 70's and early 80's to Cabaret culture in Nazi Germany, namely in the case of the apathy towards the governments actions. It ends with a modern version of the Nazi's persecution of the cabaret, and can in some ways be seen as a sort of companion to '' California Uber Alles '' ("a Hitler youth in a jogging suit smiling face branded round his arm" can be seen as a re-appearance of the hippie-nazis of the aforementioned song). |
