Blitzkid – Mr. Sardonicus


“When we approached the writing of Apparitional we were at a place where we felt a desire to touch base with our more fundamental punk roots.” Says vocalist/bassist Argyle Goolsby. “On our last album Five Cellars Below we explored our more fringe musical influences rather than relying solely on our prior albums comfort zones. Doing so gave us a deeper perspective of what propelled Blitzkid. On Apparitional we took that broadening of our sound and brought back much of the urgency and upbeat punk rock melody that our earliest songs conveyed. The results are truly the most resolved and balanced that Blitzkid have ever sounded as a band.”

Argyle Goolsby on Mr. Sardonicus:
“This song was borne out of time of immense inspiration. I can’t categorize how i was feeling outside of simply saying there was an undefined longing and a feeling of déjà vu guiding its creation. We were very happy to have our friend Doyle Wolfgang Von Franknenstein (formerly of THE MISFITS) play accompanying guitar on this track. There is an ethereal whimsical sadness to this song that needed to be translated and I feel like Doyle’s howling and supplicating guitars captured this perfectly.”

Marco Beltrami’s ‘Scream’ Score Gets Deluxe Reissue For 30th Anniversary

Published

July 9, 2026

By

Seminal slasher Scream rewrote the rules in 1996, and for its 30th anniversary,  Varèse Sarabande and Craft Recordings are celebrating with a new anniversary reissue of Marco Beltrami’s landmark score.

The original 14-track album returns to vinyl in a collectible “blood-soaked” sleeve on August 28.

If blood red isn’t your color, there’s good news: the reissue will also be available in many different limited-edition exclusive pressings.

In addition to the wide “Woodsboro Bloodbath” red vinyl pictured below, look for the following exclusives:

An Extended Cut Edition of the Scream (Original Motion Picture Score), featuring all 40 of the film’s cues from the 2022 Scream boxset, will also be available on CD. All formats are available to pre-order or pre-save today.

Top L-R: “Knife’s Edge” silver vinyl with poster (Target), “Surprise, Sidney” metallic blend vinyl (Barnes & Noble), “Don’t Hang Up” clear vinyl (Books-A-Million),
Bottom L-R: “I’ll Be Right Back” blue vinyl (Urban Outfitters), “Final Girl” splatter vinyl (Hot Topic), “Wrong Answer” Blood Red Splatter vinyl (Varèse Sarabande/Craft Recordings), and “Final Phone Call” blue vinyl (Indie Retail)

Marco Beltrami composed the iconic score as a then young, up-and-coming composer—one who, ironically, had never scored or even seen a horror film.

Yet just three years after he completed the University of Southern California’s rigorous scoring program, Beltrami submitted 13 minutes of music for Scream’s opening sequence and his future was forever changed. “We knew in half a minute that we had found our composer,” Craven told Variety in 2012. “The music was haunting, beautiful and totally original. Marco turned out to be shy and soft-spoken, but a fountain of ideas and innovation. I never looked back.”
