Mulliga's Myths and Folktales, Part 5 - It Came From the Desert!, Vol. 3

This Halloween, I'm featuring freaky folklore from around the world...everything from the Mothman, to Bloody Mary, to the alligators in New York sewers. In this post, we'll look at a compilation album put together by Matt King, a Coachella Valley musician, loosely themed around Halloween:

The It Came From the Desert! project mixes original songs contributed by Coachella Valley musicians with comic radio skits depicting monstrous happenings. Volume 1 was about fishmen invading from the Salton Sea, Volume 2 featured homicidal Robotic Süper Compüter 6060842 and a robotic takeover, and this year's Volume 3 is about the hunt for the mythical Yucca Man, the Southwest's version of Sasquatch.

It's a neat listen, and the Volume 3 album is the longest one yet, clocking in at an hour and 45 minutes. The comic skits actually maintain continuity with the prior volumes, and some of the musical tracks absolutely cook - just listen for yourself:
