Necrospective! SHOCKER!
The Dudes of Wrath? Guy Mann-Dude? Ring any bells?
The 80’s, especially the late 80’s, were a goldmine for a few things. Hard Rock and Metal were in a great place. Horror was seeing a massive bumper crop of great films. And at the later part of that decade, those two forces intersected quite a bit in the form of some truly great soundtracks for horror movies. Now I am not talking about scores, even though there were some great scores also. Scores of course being typically instrumental, often orchestral, and written to accompany the music and be played during key scenes.
