PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Dragon's Domain Records proudly presents the fourth volume in our ongoing series of music from classic science-fiction films.

It's only the end of the world . . . again as we salute the late, great Roger Corman's third outing as director, THE DAY THE WORLD ENDED (1955), scored by Ronald Stein. The film begins just after a nuclear attack, described as ''Total Destruction Day,'' and much of humanity is apparently wiped out. A rag-tag collection of survivors gather at the home of a doomsday prepper and his daughter. They struggle with the threat of radiation, limited food and water, and a three-eyed mutant creature lurking outside!

The second film in this collection features music from the criminally under represented composer Elisabeth Lutyens, who became Britain's first female feature film composer when she began accepting commissions to write scores for both Hammer and Amicus studios.

THE EARTH DIES SCREAMING (1964) has another group of survivors huddling down in a small English village inn, only be confronted by two space-suited figures that have the touch of death! Terence Fisher (HORROR OF DRACULA, 1958) directed this alien invasion film making good use of his limited resources with atmospheric lighting, imaginative camera work and well-chosen location shooting.

THE GOLDEN AGE OF SCIENCE FICTION: VOL. 4 has been mastered by James Nelson at Digital Outland. Exclusive liner notes by author David Hirsch explore these classic films from the sci-fi craze of the 1950s and 60s. This CD set is a limited run. THE GOLDEN AGE OF SCIENCE FICTION: Volume 4 is expected to begin shipping the week of June 19th, 2024.

SPECIAL NOTE: These recordings were originally taken from analog masters and music & effects tracks and therefore certain limitations from the source tapes may be evident. We have tried to preserve as closely as possible, the quality of the original recordings.
