Macabre's music was strongly influenced by U.S. and U.K. hardcore, grindcore, and death metal acts, ranging from The Accüsed and Cryptic Slaughter to Possessed and Napalm Death. Macabre's sickening sense of humor alienated casual metal listeners. However, it helped to gain a small but strong cult status among fans.
2) 18 Visions had a couple of names before it got finalized. The first name was DANTE, taken from a song by the Seattle band Dead Skin Mask, Dante’s Inferno. The band may or not have played a show under this moniker, but some people remember seeing it on at least one flyer. After that, the band changed it’s name to Macabre (pronounced MAC-a-bree by the HB 9 Balls).
The lineup of the band on the demo was James Hart on vocals, Ken Floyd on drums, Dave Peters on guitar, and Billy Sisler on bass.
3) Short-lived hard rock/proto-metal band from Arlington, VA, United States. Formed in 1970 and released a single in 1972: Be Forewarned / Lazy Lady. A recording titled Rehearsal '72 was also released.
The band's name was sometimes misspelled as "Macbre".
The band re-formed as the Early Doom Metal band Pentagram.
4) Macabre is a solo project from Ali (Alice Ronzini), bass player of the band J.C. Satàn and singer of the band La Secte du Futur.
Macabre was born in a room in the city of Bordeaux and is the result of depression, love, violence, black metal and distorted sounds.
With the collaboration of Pousse Mort, the one and only other member of the band, she wrote the first Demo and recorded it deliberately using lo-fi sound.
At this time Macabre is working on the second Demo and the creation of the first self-titled LP, as a future project. It will contain re-recorded songs from two demos.
At the moment Macabre doesn't perform and remains a misanthrope project.
5) Macabre is a punk band from Santa Ana, California.

Night Stalker
Macabre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then he'll take away your life
He's coming to your house with Satan in his head
Looking for a way in, while you're sleeping in your bed
Night Stalker - looking for
An unlocked window or door
Night Stalker looking for
Through the window he will come
With his small caliber gun
Creeping through your house when there isn't any light
He's gonna wake you up with a bang in the night
Night Stalker - will delight
In killing you in the night
Night Stalker will delight
In killing you in the night
He will sneak up to your bed
Shoot your husband in the head
He'll beat and rape you while your husband slowly dies
And make you swear to Satan that you won't let out a cry
Night Stalker - will get you
Then he will murder you
Night Stalker will get you
Then he will murder you
The lyrics to Macabre's song Night Stalker describe a horrifying scenario where a killer, referred to as the Night Stalker, breaks into people's homes at night and takes their lives. The song describes how the Night Stalker seeks out unlocked windows or doors as a way to gain entry to the unsuspecting victims' homes, and how he sneaks into their bedrooms while they sleep. The use of Satan as a motif in the song adds to the macabre mood, as the Night Stalker is portrayed as being possessed by the devil himself. The lyrics describe how the Night Stalker takes pleasure in killing, and brutally murders both men and women.
The lyrics are shocking and disturbing, but they serve as a warning of the evil that exists in the world. The use of violence and horror in music is not new, and this genre of music has been popular since the 1970s. While some may find the lyrics to Night Stalker to be too intense, others may find the song to be a reflection of the darker aspects of society. Ultimately, the interpretation of the song's lyrics is up to the listener, but there is no question that the song is meant to be frightening and disturbing.
