4.0 out of 5 stars One of Elfman's Best and Darkest Scores Ever!, January 26, 1999

"Night Breed" seems to represent to me the pinnacle of Danny Elfman's achievement as a composer, equalled only by his astounding work on "Batman". The music on this album is haunting, mesmerizing and very, very dark. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff like we've come to expect from Elfman, February 2, 1999

This is a deliciously dark score, but it has a lighter side that shows Elfman's versatility. Listenable all the way through, but there are stand-out tracks. I especially loved track 13 ("Uh-oh...Decker!") which layers a bunch of creepy strings...shudder! (In a good way.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Elfman's Darkest Score to Date, August 13, 1999

"Nightbreed" represents the pinnacle of Danny Elfman's dark, scary music. While "Batman" presented a dark, heroic score, "Nightbreed" plunges the listener into the bizarre, nightmarish depths of Midian, where the dead walk. Nothing Elfman has composed since can equal the dark tone and mood of this score. I highly recommend this to horror music fans, and especially to fans of Danny Elfman. It's a must-have, especially at this low price!!!
