Twanging acoustic guitar and bouzouki almost sound Tibetan too, the way they are played.

The track is full of wailing and that deep, resonant "Doh!" again, this time sounding like the chant of Tibetan monks. 'Opening To The Sighs' is a very brief piece of drumming building to a crescendo, and sounds more like the end of 'Witch' than the opening to the next track, 'Sighs', which starts with such evil-sounding sighs that they literally make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I listen to this on headphones.
The track contains experimental use of synthesizers and distorted drums, all sounding spooky. That specific sound reminds me of PATRICK MORAZ's "Story of i", and I am left wondering whether MORAZ was inspired by this piece. 'Witch' starts with what sounds like ritualistic tribal drumming, howling vocalisations and a deep, reverberating "Doh!" that hits you in the solar plexus. The piece rocks up half way through and even turns funky. There is some excellent use of synthesizer here. Creepy, whispered la-la-la-ing and evil-sounding speaking leave you in no doubt about that.

The track just screams (figuratively, that is!) "horror movie soundtrack" at you. The title track starts off spookily, with celesta and bells playing a 13-note theme that carries on through the track and ingrains itself in your brain. The album is a synthesizer fan's feast, but the synths are so integral to the pieces - and used to produce such a mixture of sounds - that to me this does not feel at all like a keyboard-laden album. This one is the official soundtrack to Dario Argento's 1977 classic horror flick Suspiria, and is essentially an instrumental album if one discounts the vocalisations, spooky whispering and speaking here and there. GOBLIN, three of whose members played in CHERRY FIVE, was/is a skilled group of musicians who produced slick, well-crafted scores.

This Italian progressive music is rather strange and well suited for the excellent DarioĪrgento's horror movies. Posted Sunday, Ma| Review this album | Report (Review #18948) Word has it, this might be the strongest GOBLIN soundtrack out there. Overall, "Suspiria" is a stronger album than "Roller". The tracks are also quite detailed (which is suprising today, since modern soundtrack music isn't supposed to stand out, and work well even without the visuals. The tracks tend to mix dissonant notes, evil whispering voices, percussion crashes, and even a few funky sections. Yet, the music never falls into the "cheesy" HALLOWEN music category. Well, as far as "scary" goes by today's standards (X-files influenced soundtracks) the music is typical of the mid-70s. "Suspiria" is a soundtrack to another Italian horror movie, but it's also considered GOBLIN's scariest and most experimental work to date. That movie turned out to become a hit in Italy, and the soundtrack a best-seller. They changed their band name, started work on another progressive rock album, but suddenly changed careers after receiving a call from a movie director to write the soundtrack to a horror movie entitled "Profundo Rosso". If you're not, the band started off in the early 70s as the band CHERRY FIVE (reviewed above). I think most people who listen to progressive rock are familiar with the Italian band GOBLIN.
