TALES FROM THE CRYPT PRESENTS: Demon Knight—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Clear with Green & Purple Swirl Vinyl) Limited edition

Wanna hear the soundtrack to

Armageddon? This 1995 film starred

William Sadler as the Demon Knight,

who, along with his new recruit, Jada

Pinkett Smith, is charged with fending

off The Collector (Billy Zane) and his

army of demons from acquiring an

ancient relic that is the only thing

preventing the complete destruction

of the human race. While the flick

did meh box office and was panned

critically, the soundtrack was easily one of the best

of its era and of its kind, an all-star line-up of thrash and heavy metal acts

mostly doing otherwise unavailable material (only the track by Pantera

appears to have been released prior to the movie). The Pantera, Megadeth,

Melvins, and Biohazard entries are particulary good, and the one hip hop

tune on the collection, Gravediggaz' "1-800-Murder," is an archetypal

"horrorcore" rap song. But perhaps the best tune is "Hey Man Nice Shot"

by Filter, an outfit that hadn't released anything prior to this soundtrack.

Since this movie came out in 1995, it only came out on LP in Europe at the

time; this reissue brings it back on clear with green and purple swirl vinyl!
