MINISTRY, WALLS OF JERICHO and BLEEDING THROUGH are among the featured artists on "8 Songs to Die For", the first branded soundtrack released by After Dark Films and Primary Wave Special Markets in conjunction with Horrorfest III "Eight Films To Die For".

Debuting in 2006, After Dark Films' Horrorfest "8 Films to Die For", is a one-week national film festival that celebrates all areas of the horror genre. In its first year, Horrorfest became the first film festival in history to break into the Top 10 at the national box office, grossing over $2.5 million.

Based on the highly successful "Eight Films To Die For" series, Primary Wave will be releasing "8 Songs To Die For" featuring songs inspired by the bloodcurdling movies that make up Horrorfest III — the biggest horror film festival in the USA. The digital releases will include some of the best metal and hardcore bands such as WALLS OF JERICHO ("The Prey"),BLEEDING THROUGH ("Death Anxiety"),MINISTRY ("Let's Go"),and THE REVOLTING COCKS ("Keys to the City"),among others.

"8 Themes To Die For" will contain songs and scores from the feature films in Horrorfest III; this year's lineup includes "The Broken", "Autopsy", "Dying Breed", "Butterfly Effect 3", "From Within", "Slaughter", "Voices", and "Perkins' 14".

Primary Wave's Jonathan Platt and Jonathan Miller, the team that produced the successful "Saw" soundtracks, selected the songs on both "8 Songs To Die For" and "8 Themes To Die For".

"Primary Wave Special Markets is thrilled to be releasing a musical companion inspired by Horrorfest," says Rob Horowitz, COO of Primary Wave Music Publishing. "We're proud to have our music complement this year's crop of amazing films."
