Yeah I like that title better too. But WG is not a half-bad title.

Other hot tip, Kritzerland is about to do a reissue of the Carrie soundtrack which sold out in like a day when they did it before. It will be just a single CD of the complete score this time though, the 2nd cd with the shorter album program won't be included. I think it goes live this tuesday or poss the tuesday after that.

Also, after having my first listen to Bish Bosch today it was really hard to figure out what to follow new Scott Walker with. But then I remembered Howard Shore's music for The Cell and yes it is still one of the most amazing recordings of this century and a fine avant-Stygian match for nu-Scott. Everyone who reads this thread should get a cheap used copy!

Plenty to enjoy here, most of which I hadn't heard. Listen & absorb & discuss.

okay WTF I am experiencing a crossed-streams mind explosion. Just learned that the great Leonard Rosenman (who composed the fearsomely avant-garde scores to The Prophecy, Sibyl, Fantastic Voyage, the 2nd Planet of the Apes film, Bakshi's LOTR, etc etc) was the arranger and producer on the Linda Perhacs album. She was his dentist. Help! My brain!!!

Add dentistry to any equation and it's going to result in a pretty severe brain fritz for me. Yikes.

BTW i just got hold of a few cues from Rosenman's music to Sibyl. You, LL, should hear them, they are freeeeky. Will try to remember to upload this weekend and send u link.

Oooh thanks!!

sent u a mail through the ILX system!

Apparently this song was used in the end credits of the American version of Tenebrae – which was the version that Argento and Claudio Simonetti did a commentary track for. They were not happy when it got to that part.

Crazy things have always happened when Italian genre productions come to the US. They used to have Les Baxter completely re-score stuff for American release!

To be fair, the reverse is also true – I think Evil Dead II was known as House V there.

lol

Whereas House 2 made its way across the pond as Army Of Darkness 7

Yeah, looks like I got them reversed – my memory is based off of some international posters I saw the convention a couple years ago.

"In Italy, The Evil Dead was released under the title La Casa ("The House") and Evil Dead II became La Casa II. These were followed by three unrelated movies: Umberto Lenzi's La Casa 3 (aka Ghosthouse) (1988), Fabrizio Laurenti's La Casa 4 (aka Witchery) (1988) and Claudio Fragasso's La Casa 5 (1990). This is similar to what has happened in George A. Romero's Living Dead series starting with Zombi 2. House II: The Second Story (1987) and The Horror Show (1989) were retitled La Casa 6 and La Casa 7 respectively in their Italian releases."

(Horror conventions are populated by some weird people, by the way)

That rules. I want to establish an obscure European nation and release my alltime top 20 horror films there retitled to all be in the same series!

1) thanks! got your email, will listen ASAP!!

TROLL 2 anyone?

No thanks!

Never again. I could sit through the first one one more time probz, for the cuet puppets.

and Goldsmith ripoff music

I don't know, I could do Troll 2 again. First one is just kind of boring – and it's not like the second one is a thrill a minute, but the WTF moments are way more entertaining.

They each have their charms! I like the part in Troll where the dad is air guitaring to Blue Cheer and JL-D as a forest sprite (unless I'm misremembering?). I basically like everything about Troll 2.

god the air guitar scene is AMAZING

The burning Rick Wakeman.

The Waker-man. Set it alight.

B-but what if I click on that and then I like a Rick Wakeman? Can I take that chance?

Sold out at source but sure to be hitting distros soon.

I love the Emanuelle and the cannibals soundtrack, really sketchy sleazy stuff

Liking a Rick Wakeman is ok when there is a legend of terror involved. Look at the scissors!

Andy Votel's Hindi Horrorcore mix

Y'all need to listen to that Rick Wakeman suite. It gets so good near the end.

OK that was pretty awesome and it only gets very Wakeman-y at the end and not in a bad way. Sounds like it was ripped from vinyl, was this music released commercially?

it's on spotify!!

sounds better on spotify too

WEAR ONE CAPE

just got caught in the crossfire of a teenage snowball fight while listening to the rosemary's baby soundtrack
dramatic!

So this is back in print?

http://www.lalalandrecords.com/FuryThe.html

Yeah and apparently with drastically improved sound q, say trustworthy folks.

LL what track specifically? We need to know.

>(Horror conventions are populated by some weird nice, friendly and partially drunkpeople, by the way)

THE COVEN!!

and also some of "Moment Musical" because it was a really drawn-out snowball fight. i followed it for 2 blocks and then had to walk through it saying excuse me please excuse me please excuse me please.

(on "Richard Band ripped Herrmanns' Psycho")
an older Mikael Carlsson fanboyish review of the "flawed but unique" Re-Animator filmscore by Richard Band....being "one of the coolest musical in-jokes ever presented in a film score", plus some funny trivia like how difficult it was to work with the Rome Philharmonic.

oddly enough, as i'm listening right now to the Pit & The Pendulum (1991) score by Band...i have to admit it sounds like some generic carmina burana rip-off.

Yeah, Band is not the man to go to for startling originality. He can be pretty fun sometimes though.
