Known for cult horror film scores, and as a member of Goblin in its various guises, Claudio Simonetti is now to take the Demons soundtrack on the road in the US and Canada. The performances will also include a film screening, and additional “best of” sets. Read the article below for dates, tickets, and more.
Just a year after conquering North America for the 45th anniversary of ‘Suspiria,’ Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin is returning to the states! This time, the collective will be performing the score to the chilling and grotesque 1985 horror flick, Demons, as well as a comprehensive “best of” set. The full itinerary and tickets can be found here.
Composer Claudio Simonetti has written and recorded some of the most influential soundtracks in horror, including Dawn of the Dead, Deep Red, Suspiria, Tenebrae, and countless others, with his seminal work still informing the genre to this day. Simonetti and his collective will perform the haunting and tense score to Demons. The film was produced by master of horror Dario Argento (Suspiria, Tenebrae, etc.) and was directed by Lamberto Bava, son of iconic cinematographer Mario Bava. Enter the screening with caution and don’t touch any props, lest the demons possess you…
In 2022, Simonetti’s Goblin celebrated the 45th Anniversary of Dario Argento’s iconic picture, Suspiria with this modern progressive update to the iconic soundtrack. Suspiria – Prog Rock Version is available here.
