BUYSOUNDTRAX Records presents 2001 Maniacs: Field Of Screams, featuring music composed by Patrick Copeland and a host of artists for the 2010 horror film written and directed by Tim Sullivan and starring Bill Moseley (Night of the Living Dead, House of 1000 Corpses), Lin Shaye ("Snakes on a Plane"), Kevin "ohgr" Ogilivie ("Repo! The Genetic Opera"), Christa Campbell ("Day of the Dead"), Ahmed Best ("Star Wars: The Phantom Menace"), Trevor Wright ("Shelter") and telenovela vixen Andrea Leon ("Hood of Horror"). According to Sullivan and producer Christopher Tuffin, it is as much a wild re-imagining of the preceding films as a sequel to them. Their intention was to raise the stakes beyond the ordinary glut of by-the-numbers horror releases to create a smart, genre-defying feature that pushes every limit to the extreme. Tuffin compares "Maniacs" to an episode of "South Park" or "The Simpsons" in the sense that "Maniacs" is nothing less than a carnival house mirror held up to American culture.

The soundtrack features songs provided by fans of the franchise found on Myspace and Facebook, as well as the film's star Bill Moseley providing the end-title track, with original music by Patrick Copeland (Hood of Horror).

Come get a taste of the old south and let the old south get a taste of you!!

When this year's round of unsuspecting Northerners fail to show up for their annual Guts N' Glory Jamboree, the residents of Pleasant Valley take their cannibalistic carnival on the road and head to Iowa where they encounter spoiled heiresses Rome and Tina Sheraton and the cast and crew from their "Road Rascals" reality show. Performing "The Bloodiest Show on Earth", our Southern maniacs prove to be more than ratings killers in what John Landis has called "one of the rare sequels that surpasses the original."

To put together the sonic backdrop, Sullivan turned to the fans, "Horror movies are to film what punk rock is to music," said Sullivan, "the rebellious, bastard stepchild of a medium." Without a big music budget, Sullivan made the populist appeal -- he put out the word through various social networking sites looking for music.

"The response was tremendous," explains Sullivan. "None other than Mayor Buckman himself lead the charge with Bill Moseley's very own Lord Let Me Help You, a terrific track he whipped up with Rani Sharone and their band Spider Mountain."

The result is a soundtrack as maniacal as the film. Highlights include Psycho Charger's newly recorded "The South Will Rise (Field of Screams"), twangy-country tracks from the film's stars Ahmed Best & Clifford Allen Wagner (who also provides the rocking title track "Killers on the Highway"), coupled with rock, indie rock and dance cuts from United Snakes, Me & My Friends, Sean Avolio, Sweet Cyanide, Kyle Justin, Shawn Mars and Zombie Girl, all interspersed with comedic dialog from the film. Rounding out the soundtrack is the original score by Patrick Copeland.

Describes Sullivan, "Like the film itself, Patrick's music is a little bit of everything, a mixed bag of lunacy and mayhem that perfectly captures the 'Splatstick' variety show that is Field of Screams."
