A long awaited Goblin soundtrack........2001-07-21

For once, those who think that they know everything are actually on to something. I agree fully that this is an excellent soundtrack. It was unavailable for too many years. Cinevox has done an excellent job of putting this CD together, including the full score, alternate takes, and sound FX. This is what Goblin's all about. It is dark, scary and melodic, something that cannot be said for the movie that this score was written for. If you can trust me, a green fan of just 10 years, then don't hesitate! Buy this CD right away. If you need better credentials, then there are fans out there with 10,000 light years of experience who are FAR more qualified to present their opinions. Just ask them!!

ghostly, ghastly and original.......2000-04-10

Buio Omega is a very insane movie, and the soundtrack works with it perfectly. I had the soundtrack before I saw the film, and I really enjoyed it, and after seeing the movie I enjoy it even more. It is very original, and not like any horror soundtrack I ever heard. it has some funky seventies style music that I think works to make an even creepier atmosphere. I was playing it the other day and someone walked by and said " this sounds like ghost music", and I said this is necrophilia music,and the film is very sick,but I love it.

Not a purchase I can recommend.......2002-03-04

I bought this CD using the following logic:

I like the music from "Dawn of the Dead" (released as "Zombi" in Italy) but the CD will probably be repeative. I was EXTREMELY pleased with the selections on the first entry in the DRG Goblin anthology/retrospective series, so I'd probably be content with this one, too.

I'm sorry to say that I was wrong. The first disc in the series really DID contain the very best of Goblin's film music. Most of the selections here probably did just fine as support pieces for the movies they were created for, but as independent works they just aren't all that interesting.

The "Buio Omega" cuts are drab--think Jean-Michele Jarre on a bad day--and mostly repeated from the first Goblin disc.

The "Tenebre" remix is cool and rocky in the way the "Zombi" tracks are, and is one of the CDs high points. It's definately one of the better efforts from Gobin. It's a nice revamping of the "Tenebre" theme from the first volume.

The three selections from "Phenomena" are also mostly regrettable; Jennifer is just dull, and the alternate version of the Phenomena theme is a repeat from the first Goblin disc. (A really cool track--very much classic Italian film music and a nice instrumental piece to boot--but it's already been presented in the series!) Sleepwalking is the only worthwhile cut of the trio.

The "Mark the Coakroach" cuts are so-so pieces and I once again think they probably worked in the context of the film, but they come across as weak jazz/rock fuzion pieces here. Not really bad, but not rising above the level of background noise either. (The Dance is the best of the three, but drags on for too long.)

As for what was for me the "main attraction," the Zombi/Dawn of the Dead cuts, they didn't disappoint. I found the two peices I were really looking for--the main title music and the main action music Zaratozom. Unfortunately, they repeated the film's main theme from the first Goblin disc here. So, two out of three tracks I already had... another disappointment.

The "Amo Non Amo" tracks are nice pieces, once again sounding like typical italian film music from the Seventies. They, once again, stand as average Goblin efforts, with "Yell" being the only of the trio that barely manages to rise above background noice status.

I really recommend that you stay away from this disc, unless you're the world's biggest Goblin fan who must own EVERYTHING! It really isn't a good value for the price.

Another Fine Goblin Collection But With More Repetition.......2001-03-26

For those of you who are planning to build your Goblin collection around the four volume DRG Records series (which I did), it can get kinda frustrating with the repeated tracks on some of the CDs. On this the third volume, the first two tracks from Buio Omega are repeated from The Goblin Collection. So are Phenomena (from Phenomena, which is an alternate version, not the album version) and L'alba Dei Morti Viventi (from Zombi). The Tenebre Remix doesn't differ that greatly from the classic title track, either(that might be a good thing). Still, it's another fine collection here, with some rare tracks from the film Amo Non Amo (which, when released in the states, were replaced by Burt Bacharach songs, sheesh!!!!!!!) being the main reason why I bought this CD. It's definitely worth having.

Almost, but not quite.......2000-05-04

This CD does not come close to the Zombi anniversary CD, as this only has three tracks from the Dawn of the Dead Soundtrack, but it is a good starter. I had this CD before the Dawn CD, so it was nice to at least have a few good Dawn songs before my Zombi CD arrived. Other tracks are good, but not as memorable as classic Dawn tracks.

Excellent progressive soundtrack music.......1999-10-14

Goblin is an always-excellent Italian band most noted for their film scores. This, DRG's third compilation, would stand better as part of a larger set rather than on its own. While the music contained herein is for the most part very good, it only offers a few glimpses of the many sounds Goblin offered in over a decade of work. There's not a lot of consistancy here in this compilation, but nevertheless it is all uniquely fascinating progressive rock/electronic soundtrack music.

THESE GUYS SUCK, REALLY, REALLY SUCK.......1999-05-22

If I could have given less than 1 star to this I would have. When I first heard them in "Dawn of the Dead" I thought they were a preprogramed track on a keyboard. If you listen to this album, your ears will begin to bleed, your brain will leak out your nose, and may god have mercy on your soul.
