Continuing with a third volume, D4Disgruntled has selected the next film to which to compose a new alternate complete score. This time the film will be Pumpkinhead.
Just as he has done with the ongoing "Horror Re-scored" series, D4Disgruntled is tackling the sci-Fi genre in this first volume of a newer album series. He is deciding between "They Live", "Moontrap", or "The Day The Earth Stood Still (Remake)".
D4Disgruntled is a Musical Storyteller.

When heard separate from the film, the story should still hold up through the music on its own.
Through his personal works, he has crafted complete works around one or narratives he calls "Concept Albums". These works are either composed as potential alternate scores to existing films as though he had been originally hired to write them or stand-alone simple narratives he conceived. These works, while available for purchase, are also 'demos" from which to obtain work.
A concept album is an album whose tracks hold a larger purpose or meaning collectively than they do individually.[ This is typically achieved through a single central narrative or theme, which can be instrumental, compositional, or lyrical. The concept album "was originally defined as a long-player where the songs were based on one dramatic idea – but the term is subjective." The most common definitions refer to an expanded approach to a rock album (as a story, play, or opus), or a project that either revolves around a specific theme or a collection of related materials.
