Alejandro Jodorowsky - The Holy Mountain OST As chaotic as Alejandro Jodorowsky's psychedelic epic The Holy Mountain is from a visual standpoint, the soundtrack gives back in equal measure, dialing all over the spectrum from plaintive folk to Tuvan
throat singing, epic orchestrals to noise and rock. If you've ever seen the cult classic, then you know that the movie is overwhelming to say the least and only really coherent to probably about 13% of the populace in the midst of an Ayahuasca comedown. Its heavy handed but also rather beautiful and since its release its legend has only grown. The movie's score finds a way to keep pace with the barrage of non-linear imagery, bursts of color and shifts in tone so adeptly that its a testament to its originators. Jodorowsky enlisted the help of Don Cherry and Ron Frangipane (he of The Archies fame) to bring the musical companion of the film to life. Along with Jodorowsky's own conducting, the team proves well more than formidable. Traditionally the score hasn't been widely available and certainly not on vinyl but RealGone have rounded it up on double vinyl. Listen: Support the artist. Buy it HERE
