Murder metal trio Macabre played Reggies in Chicago on December 27 for another year’s Holiday of Horror. Macabre is a very appropriate band name, considering that notorious murderers make up nearly all of the band’s subject matter. Some song highlights from this year include: Zodiac, Nightstalker, Joe Ball, The Wheels on the Bug, Iceman, Temple of Bones, Hitchhiker, Vampire of Dusseldorf. They’ll play Milwaukee Metal Fest in May 2026, as well as several European fests in the summer. Check out some images from the show below!
