Psychomania OST- John Cameron (Performed by Frog) 1972

Yes. Yes. Yes. After being a fan of this British cult film I finally tracked down the brilliant soundtrack after it recieved a limited release a few years back. Psychomania is one of those classic' so bad it's good' films that once watched you are forever smitten!

A motorcyclist who is part of a gang is killed in a crash but comes back to life riding out of his grave with his leathers and bike intact! The rest of his gang then commit suicide in various ways to also come back from the dead to wreak havoc! Complete with no blood, terrible acting and a clunky script it is still a classic!

What about the score though I hear you say? Well it's a score composed by John Cameron, performed by a bunch of session musicians who collectively call themselves 'Frog'. The music ranges from groovy psychedelic rock to weird sound effects and avant garde noises but it's all so typically bad ass english 70's rock that you just have to own it if you like that era.

Music kicks in after 1 min to give you some idea:
