Goblin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblin_(band))'s soundtrack for Dario Argento's movie 'Suspiria' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076786/).

Not bad when you're listening just album. Quite progressive for the 70's. But, in the movie... Scared the fecal matter out of me...

Well... Movie as well...

The ones that frighten me the most are the ones with what they

call "music" in them but in actuality is nothing more than crap. Rap music, to

me, is like that. People buying crap instead of good music produced by good

musicians not by wannabees that can be had. To each their own and let

them buy crap for that's what they are full of anyway.

It seems to me like you're employing a highly subjective definition of good there.

You are correct, someone must set the standards of what is good and bad

for themselves and I'm the only one that will do it for myself.

King Diamond, Them.

How many other albums involve ritual sacrifice of your mother's blood, the dismemberment of your little sister, and the axe-murder of your grandmother, all so that said mother could run off with the psychiatrist whose false reports put you in the asylum?

Second scariest: Tiffany, Tiffany

I can't believe I ever owned a copy of this album. Seriously, the Devil must have made me buy it. Even now, twenty years later, I still will occasionally hear, somewhere in the back of my mind, "You keep me hanging like a / kid on a corner / just because you think you think you can ...."

Dear God, what have I done?

Oh, and Suspiria is one of the scariest movies ever made. There's one scene that I never understood, but it's been years since I've seen it. But there's a room that's, like, full of razor-wire or something. Maybe it's a different movie.

That's actually one of my daughter's favorite songs. She sings along to several Gabriel tracks. "Father, Son", "Sledgehammer", "Big Time", "Love Town", and "Blood of Eden" come to mind. And she adores the videos. She laughs at the sperm shot in "Sledgehammer", and waits to exhale for "Blood of Eden".

My Dad had this one, Scorpions Virgin Killer, the original. I just remember seeing it once and then never again. I think he put it in a different cover.
Scorpions came out with the second one later.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F# A# (Infinity)
http://static.boomkat.com/images/72674/333.jpg

A terminally morose avant rock examination of the incipient decline of civilization. In luei of vocals, the band mostly relies on the instrumentation to provide the narrative, with dark sprawling song suites occaisionaly overlapped by by found sounds, such a distant train racing too and from nowhere in particular, a poetic requim, snippets of a man on the street venting social and political rants in an unstable, vitriolic manner... This album is a chilling documentary about the real horrors that lurk beneath the surface of everyday life.

Most of Argento's movies have great soundtracks, but Susperia just fucking worked.

All Those Darker Days To Come... by Nothvs Filivs Mortis.
It's pure evil.

The nightmarish Compositions by Bishop of Hexen is a scary album too.

Well, the prudes had other things on their hands, I'm sure. Compared to Bill Clinton, a picture of a baby that one must put effort into sexualizing seemed small taters.

whatever
you will still have to work within some objective standards
you maybe free to redefine and transgress
you will however face the consequences of divergence from established norms

go on
be a law unto yourself
knock your self out

Led Zeppelin: Houses of the Holy


I was always under the impression that the children were the progeny of singer Robert Plant, and thought the girl on the Scorpions' Virgin Killer cover was similarly sourced, but the wiki entries for both make no mention of it.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houses_of_the_Holy

The cover art for Houses of the Holy was inspired by the ending of Arthur C. Clarke's novel Childhood's End. (The ending involves several naked children, only slightly and physically resembling the human race in basic forms). It is a collage of several photographs taken at the Giant's Causeway, Northern Ireland, by Aubrey Powell of Hipgnosis. The photoshoot was a miserable affair over the course of every morning for a week. The desired sunrise never appeared due to constant rain and clouds and many of the models were never used. The results of the shoot were less than satisfactory, but some accidental tinting effects in post-production created an unexpectedly magical album cover. The inner sleeve photograph was taken at Dunluce Castle near to the Causeway. It was initially released with a paper collar wrapped around the cover, printed with the band and album name, that had to be broken or slid off to access the record. This hid the children's bottoms from general display, but still the album was either banned or unavailable in Spain and some parts of the Southern United States for several years. The cover was rated #6 on VH1's 50 Greatest Album Covers in 2003.

No it's Suspiria indeed. Girl fell into spools of razor-wire when she was trying to escape.
One of the most impressive scenes in horror movies history.

I hope you'll find DVD. I found XviD and it was really lousy. Good sound, but picture was awful.
You must see it in original vivid colours.

Most of Argento's movies have great soundtracks, but Susperia just fucking worked.
Yes, indeed. Goblin worked with him on other movies as well and on several other horrors including John Woo's Mo deng tian shi.
Argento pays much attention to complete atmosphere. Despite the most vicious murders ever seen on the movie, he knows how to create suspense with great use of color and music.

I use headphones all the time and there is no escape when you put them on and...

Sound scratches your brain... While you're grabbing sofa underneath...
Colours flash... You're trying to make step back... But you cannot... You're sitting actually... Terrified...
You know that something terrible will happen... But you don't know what...
And when...

Terror slowly approaches...

Atmosphere. That's the key for great horror. Not severed body parts, not gallons of blood,...
Just good ol' atmosphere.

Maybe it's time to revive the 'Best Horror Movies' thread.

My Dad had this one, Scorpions Virgin Killer, the original. I just remember seeing it once and then never again. I think he put it in a different cover.
Scorpions came out with the second one later.

Oh dear... I forgot this 'paedo jewel'. Disgusting. :mad:
