Label: Real Gone Music

Reissued 10/10/2025, Originally released 2003

When Freddy Krueger of Nightmare on Elm Street and Jason Voorhees of Friday the 13th butted heads (or lost their heads, heh heh) in the 2003 film Freddy Vs. Jason, the result wasn’t just the most financially successful film for either franchise; it was also the inspiration for possibly the greatest heavy metal soundtrack ever. Drawn from the astonishingly deep Roadrunner label roster, the line-up featured songs from Sepultura, Slipknot, Type O Negative, Sevendust, Lamb of God, Killswitch Engage, Hatebreed, Chimaira…the list goes on. Not only that, but fourteen of the twenty tracks were previously unreleased! Nu metal, death metal, metalcore, industrial…whatever alloy of metal you favor, it’s here. Amazingly, this Top 25-charting release has never come out on LP before; our double-LP red smoke pressing comes inside a gatefold jacket and is limited to 1500 bloodcurdling copies. Happy Halloween!
