Weird title for a blog about music, right? 
Yes, it's a movie, and yes, the soundtrack is great!

For those who wondering, Army of darkness is the third movie of a series called Evil Dead. This third one is completely different from the others, with a dark humor, some really catchy phrases and an awesome soundtrack.

If you're a geeky French or French Canadian, you probably heard about some MP3 Saga which one of the most popular one is named "Donjon de Naheulbeuk" in the adds and in a lot of the early episodes we can heard some song from this movie. It's really hard to mistake it when you know the movie.

I got the chance to found the soundtrack in a thrift store for a low low price of 3$. This soundtrack is composed and produced by Joseph Loducas on 1994 and it's one of the earliest of MANY project he worked on. For once, i'll add 3 song of the same album, simply because I want to....

To my opinion, it's probably one of he most Iconic song of the movie, and one i heard the most to hype a DnD cession. It's also the song I was speaking about in the Naheulbeuk Add. It's also my favorite song if the album.

This song seem to go in every direction, but it's telling a story. I'm not gonna tell mush about the scene it appear in, because if you never watch it, you missing something great. I also see a lots of those short cut being use to put some emphasize on some key event of some role play cession.

Night Court
Well, it's the worst song of the album... ...but it convoy a message of unease and limit madness. it's one of the song who's not only in the background, but also lead the main emotion of the scene. without song, te scene is simply awkward, at the limit of being a nonsense.
