Fantomas brings together Melvin's guitarist Buzz Osbourne, one-time Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo and bassist Trevor Dunn from Patton's long-running experimental project Mr Bungle--a line-up that should suggest something of the pretension, eccentricity and pure gut-churning heaviness that appears on this, their cinematically-conceptual second album. The Directors' Cut consists of 15 bizarre interpretations of the scores to their favourite cinematic moments, from modern horror landmarks--see the sludged uptake on Angelo Badalamenti's haunting Twin Peaks theme \"Fire Walk With Me\"--to ancient birth-of-cinema classics--look to the grindingly heavy death metal reworking of Karl-Ernst Sasse's terrifying theme to The Golem. Guided by Patton's gliding falsetto, the cover of Henry Mancini's Experiment In Terror score could almost be Faith No More--but such palatable moments are few and far between on this occasionally inspired catalogue of punishing weirdness. --Louis Pattison\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 689230001720\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0689230001720\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42626753495299,"sku":"IT-B31K-DYMS","price":6.51,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51X9C6aHiUL.jpg?v=1648434696","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/directors-cut-1","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
