Also known as "Daughters of Darkness," an erotic French vampire film from 1971, this 7" release features a couple of song's from Francois de Roubaix's score. And it's an intoxicating listen.
Weirdly enough, my next recommendation is a book from a couple of "Rue Morgue" magazine writers about horror soundtracks. This one is right up my alley, tackling old school releases as well as the wave of reissues over the last 10 years. And, this RSD special edition of the book comes with a 7" record featuring music from Paul Zaza, Carl Zittrer, and some disco tunes originally featured in "Prom Night." I'm stoked for this one. Shake your booty to "Love Me Til I Die" below.
This one is just me wanting to feel like an immature, snot nosed teenager again, as the silly and grimy punk jams of Green Jelly's "Cereal Killer" were a big part of my early adolescence.
While the movie has really not held up, i still love the soundtrack as much now as i did when i was 15 years old. At the time, it was an amazing allotment of '90s alt-rock bands slinging new tunes or deep cuts, and that lineup is still stellar 25 years later. And i think you could make a pretty solid argument that "Burn" is the best Cure song of anything post-"Disintegration."
New music from experimental drone doom metal band Sunn O))) is always something to get behind, and this time around, the band's latest "Life Metal" gets an early release on Record Store Day. Hazaa! Check the preview.
So there you go. There are plenty of other great releases to try and score (The Charlatans, "Twin Peaks" season 2 soundtrack, Alice Clark, etc.), but these five are the ones i can't wait to get my grubby little hands on. Check the full list here and have fun everybody!
