Wow, they're great. The Tainted Love intro sounded very Rammstein, which was fun.

This is great!
It's amazing how much the music overlaps with Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This, which I never realized until I heard the synth lead-in to this track for some reason... and then they loop it in, which is unexpected and perfect, just like Hot Chip dropping LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends" into a cover of Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark."
I only found out about the Gloria Jones Tainted Love original a couple of years ago, and it blew my mind. So here's that, if anybody's curious.

If you want some "Tainted Love," Coil's version is devastating.

Whoops! That last link should be: Broken Peach - This Is Halloween (Halloween Special Live)
I accidentally linked Broken Peach - Mamma Mia (TV Peachformance), which is nice but not very Halloweeny.
