One of the great sci-fi head trips of the 1970's was Saul Bass's "Phase IV," a film about scientists studying a hive of rapidly evolving ants. The movie is stark and heady, and the score by Brian Gascoigne and David Briscoe only amplifies that, a surreal and swirling mix of droning electronics, dusty synthesizers, and periods of classically composed beauty.
Waxwork has seen to finally distributing the soundtrack on beautiful vinyl. That's the cover art above. Listen to "Phase IV" below.
