Vinyl LP pressing. 2009 release containing the ORIGINAL SCORE to the 2009 motion picture, composed by Taylor Bates. Most recently heard with his score to The Day The Earth Stood Still, award-winning film composer Bates offers a powerful, orchestral score for the blockbuster Watchmen. Having scored two earlier films from Watchmen's Zack Snyder (300 and Dawn Of The Dead) as well as Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects and Halloween, Bates is rapidly gaining notice as the favorite composer of a new generation of directors. One of the most anticipated movies of 2009, Watchmen is an adaptation of the landmark Alan Moore/Dave Gibbons graphic novel series set in an alternative 1985 in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society and the world is on the brink of nuclear war.
