Halloween is almost upon us, and meanwhile, musicians from all corners of the globe‟s gothic, post-punk, deathrock and darkwave communities have once again rallied together to support Bat rescue, rehabilitation and conservation. Leading names like The Eden House, The Danse Society, Red Sun Revival and Bloody Dead And Sexy (feat. Gitane Demone) spearhead a cast of twenty-five bands and recording artists on "For The Bats Volume III‟; the final installment of the successful fundraising compilation series, with all proceeds paid directly to the Bat Conservation Trust (www.bats.org.uk). Alongside established names from the US, UK and Europe, "For The Bats‟ also brings together artists from some of the farthest reaches of the Earth. For remote, lesser-known or newly established bands, involvement with the popular compilation series alongside some of the scene‟s bigger names has the added benefit of greater exposure to an international audience. Bands like Alaskan duo Cliff and Ivy, Australia‟s Sounds Like Winter, and Disjecta Membra from New Zealand also hold a very specific enthusiasm for bats; particularly those species unique to their respective regions.
