My recommendation would be to download it. Goblin cds are super expensive for the amount of music on them. The original is just as good as Scultured's version though.
Goblin are cult heroes of the Italian horror underworld (see Fulci and Argento flicks, etc). It is classic 70's/80's retro-warped synthy proggy soundtrack music.
NAD - have you seen the movie, Suspiria? Or any other films with a Goblin soundtrack? (They did the European version of the original Dawn of the Dead). [Ugh, how sad that we now have to refer Romero's DotD as the 'original' version].
Anyway, Goblin may be better suited to background music in movies, but I'm not sure. I don't own Goblin CDs, just the corresponding DVDs. However, if you do track anything down, I would love a copy.
Yes, just as good. I really think Sculptured did an outstanding job on re-working Suspiria's theme.
I've ordered a few Goblin cds here: http://synphonic.8m.com/country/italy.htm
I still think they're a bit overpriced for the amount of music you get. But it's still cheaper than $40.
