Question for WD

[jimbobhickville]

Recently I read an interview with Charlie Benante of Anthrax. He talked about their experience with scoring the movie "Ghosts of Mars" (btw, has anyone seen it, is it any good?). I saw "The One" over the weekend and it had a lot of nu-metal in the soundtrack, and I thought about that interview and wished that a real metal band had done the music. If you had the opportunity, what would you think about scoring a movie? Or perhaps a video game (I know Fear Factory and Megadeth have done some)?

I'm not in any position to offer you any such job, but I am curious as to what your opinion is. If you're interested in the video game aspect, I could try to petition some video game companies, but who knows if they'd listen. I wouldn't even know how to contact the movie companies, though.

Apparently nobody cares, oh well.

...I'd certainly jump at the opportunity.

BTW, i think you are posing your question to the wrong person, usually with movie and video-game 'scores' (soundtrack's actually, a score is a totally different thing) there is no vocals. In fact, i can garauntee that no video-game would have singing in it.

good point...I knew he posted here from time to time, though, and he does help with writing. So, this would be more for Loomis, I guess. I know the difference between a soundtrack and score, but I should've worded my question to be either one. Anthrax did the score for Ghosts of Mars, according to the interview, but then I referred to the soundtrack of "The One", so I am confusing sometimes

Ithought it was a good idea, but it was for Warrel.

Good thinking trapped

I think it's an interesting question.

A dark movie would be good for nevermore,obviously.

It would make sense for them to do some music for one of those Nintendo video games since Van does artwork or whatever it is (graphic design or something like that) for those games. I think they had an Ozzy song on one game, so why not Nevermore?
