Jerry Goldsmith’s score for Ridley Scott’s 1979 science-fiction horror film Alien blends eerie atmospheres, avant-garde textures and orchestral suspense. Its unsettling musical landscape mirrors the film’s tension, mystery and otherworldly atmosphere.
Composed by Goldsmith, conducted by Lionel Newman and performed by The National Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack brings together ten compositions across two sides, from ‘Main Title’ and ‘The Face Hugger’ to ‘The Alien Planet’ and ‘End Title’.
Presented by Elemental Music in collaboration with Universal Music Group, this deluxe single-LP reissue is pressed on 180-gram vinyl and includes the original artwork.
