Editorial Reviews

Vinyl LP pressing. 2009 instrumental score to an idiosyncratic low-budget vampire flick, composed on Lennon's bedroom computer, Undead is dramatic and wild, sounding like the son of Ennio Morricone or Bruno Nicolai circa early '70s. Featuring Kool Keith and Miho Hatori (Cibo Matto) on the song 'Desire'.

This is fantastic. As if Sean Lennon's more pop/rock endeavors weren't inventive, rich and creative enough for you, now there's this. Defies categorization and immerses you in a lush, unpredictable soundscape. He's one of the the brightest younger composers out there today.

Danny Elfman without the (forgive me, oh great orange-headed one) pompousness.

This is a beautiful blend of... Who Cares? It's an amazing New Style of Classical. I'm all about it. I feel like this is setting the mood for the next generation. Places you in a European World War II setting. Very much the ambience in many big cities around the world at this time. +

An imaginative album that shows a skilled musician and talented composer. It's like a doll house where you discover hidden treasures in unexpected places. Give it a listen, it might surprise you.
