Nightmare Revisited
Nightmare Revisited is a cover album of songs and score from the 1993 Disney animated film "The Nightmare Before Christmas". It was released on September 30, 2008 by Walt Disney Records to commemorate the film's 15th anniversary of its theatrical release. In addition to the album's eighteen covers are two re-recordings by original composer Danny Elfman, of the "Opening" and "Closing" tracks. One song featured on the album, Marilyn Manson's "This Is Halloween", was previously released nearly two years earlier, on the 2006 reissue of the film's original soundtrack which, featuring five covers of songs from the film, acted as a precursor to "Nightmare Revisited". The album also features Korn — in their last collaboration before their hiatus — covering "Kidnap the Sandy Claws" which is also their first recording to feature Ray Luzier on drums. Enhanced content on the disc features the trailer of "The Nightmare Before Christmas", as well.
