Nightbreed would be nice, I think it’s the only major score of his I don’t have a physical copy of… 🙂
Hoping NIGHTBREED as well… Whenever I’m asked about what title I’d like to see, it’s this one. Here’s hoping the next time someone asks they can tell ME it’s actually going to be NIGHTBREED,
We still need a CD release of the last Doctor Strange film and since Intrada has released some Marvel score in the past I was thinking it could be that? Do we know what the score is yet?
No interest in expansions or reissues, but hoping for a completely unreleased score. Some people have suggested it might be another release of SUMMER SCHOOL, which would be irritating now that I’ve orded the one from Rusted Wave.
Nightbreed coming in a few weeks.
I rewatched the theatrical cut last night for the first time in around 13 years and I was surprised by how much was missing. The music for Decker’s killing scenes is missing, along with the cue for Boone getting run over, the build-up to ‘Meat for the Beast’, the cue for when the police torture one of the breed, a very strange cue for when the priest meets Baphomet and lots of bombastic action from the last half hour (including a cue by Shirley Walker and, significantly, the fight between Boone and Decker).
Chiming in again to say I’m excited by this one. It’s been THE title I’ve asked for—and one of those “expanded” titles that haven’t existed in the collector realm (if anyone here has had this all these years, shame on you for not sharing!)
The MCA album is sequenced so perfectly I’ll probably continue to revisit it often, but I think we need that additional music because we’re crazy.

Now this is a release.

I’d have to check, but I think that release will complete my Danny Elfman CDs collection. Never got the big Burton box (didn’t have the money back then) but I don’t really miss it and I never bought the original Nightbreed CD. It’s not a score (nor a film) I know much about, so I’m curious.
This is just great stuff. It really holds up as a complete listening experience. Something interesting is always going on. I’m especially loving all the percussion dancing around my earphones and all of these bizarre noises that Elfman creates – it’s sometimes hard to tell what’s some odd percussion and what’s choir. Just fascinating stuff that’s simultaneously Elfman to its core yet something entirely unique in his discography.
An absolute must have.
