  1. I love the mondo drawing of the girl getting scalped! I was pretty late to checking out the Maniac remake. Didn't see it until maybe like a year-year and a half ago, long after the vinyl was sold out.  I've actually never seen the original/heard the score. I assume the score is pretty similar?

    The Death Waltz release is the same score of the remake by Rob, but the score to the OG Maniac is different than the remake's and well worth your time. If you haven't seen the 1980 Maniac, treat yourself. It is gritty and perfect.

  2. I might just be losing my mind but I swear I had seen something about a Newbury Comics exclusive variant of it on blue and black vinyl or something like that. They've been getting a lot of mondo presses on their own colorways so it wouldn't surprise me

    I did not know that. Aside from Aliens, what else have they had an exclusive on?

     

    Sorda irrelevant, but maybe with all the horror fans reading this after today's drop...

    Anybody got an extra copy of Maniac? Would LOVE a white, but would be happy with either.

    I always liked the Death Waltz Maniac art/variants better personally.

  3. In the movie? Never 20 minutes. Maybe if you add the credits at the end...

    I thought the movie was boring at times...and brilliant at other times. All in all I'd give it a 6.5! Kurt Russell is badass!

    Well the credits are part of the film, but it literally is 20 minutes of music. I have checked the score. That said, I agree with you about the pacing of the film though I liked it a bit better. I thought it was an excellent flick, but it is a bit...roomy at times.

  4. Think I'm just going to grab black.  $7.00 is a bit of a price gouge for a color variant.  I get a few dollars more, but 7?

     

     

    yeah, it was like that last time and the most expensive option ended up looking the coolest (orange/black).

     

    edit: the red/black was cool as well.

     

     

    I would love to get that deluxe but $48 US after shipping to Canada is too rich for me. That would be likely $75 Canadian after conversion. I'll either buy the album from him in New York at the show or just get it from a record store in Toronto. 

    I don't have a lot of Sacred Bones LPs, but I do have both of the previous John Carpenter releases from them and the black version sounded substantially better than the special/deluxe editions in both cases, especially the Remixed LP. In brief: Fret not! $18 is more than fair for this LP and it will probably have the best fidelity as well.

  5. Both maybe?

    It's got a death waltz cat number.

     

     

    Also says "Manufactured by Death Waltz Recording Co., A Division of Mondo."

     

    Yeah they are definitely owned by Mondo now, but still run by the same guy. 

    Cheers. I saw this in a tweet this AM. The reason why I was asking about the music (aside from this being a record enthusiast forum) was because people seemed genuinely pumped for this release, before there were any sound samples available, and I was surprised at the level of interest. I figured the music must really slay. Maybe this is more of a love the movie buy the score type of releases.
