I recently watched Cape Blood 8: Revelations. Terrible film, but it has great music over the end credits. It’s credited as New Moon by the Lobotomommies. There is no mention of the Lobotomommies anywhere on the internet. I also put some of their lyrics into the google engine, and nothing.

So how do I find this music?

You mean _Camp_ Blood 8?

Anyway, the few times I’ve come across end titles music that I can’t find online because it’s obscure or a special mix for the movie or whatever I end up just running cables and dubbing the audio onto a different device. I have a bunch of stuff for that sort of thing though. You’ll need an audio editing program to neaten it up.

There are also programs that can grab just the audio from a video source but I don’t know how to do that off the top of my head, plus the video’s on Amazon Prime which might be problematic (vs. say, the video being on YouTube).

Or maybe contact whoever made the movie and ask how to get it. Probably friends of the producers or something. It looks like a pretty low-budget outfit.

Aye. I’d just send the producer or production company an email asking who they are and how you can find out more about them.

The song, [New Moon by The Lobotomommies](https://youtu.be/6izjaHVkgNo?t=4471), was kind of cool, btw, (as was the end credit sequence in general). Very avant-punk, eh. I don’t sit through many super-B movies anymore but that was worth hearing.

That is only the second song I have come across that Shazam couldn’t ID.

Only Google hit was this thread but I found [a few](https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10205139855309264&set=a.10201323672067068) [mentions](https://www.facebook.com/dennis.devine.568/posts/10207969441807158) of them on Facebook from 2015-2016 (but no page for the band). If nothing else, that Dennis Devine seems to be involved in the movie so maybe he has a contact if you ask him.

Back in the day, before everyone had the internet, there were music investigators who would advertise in the back of magazines like Creem. They would find hard to get and obscure albums and sound tracks. There was only a fee if you purchased the recording.

They were pretty good. One service actually found a record that my long deceased Uncle had cut at a county fair in the 50’s. :eek:

To this day neither I nor my cousins can figure out HTF they did it.😕

Yeah, I suppose I’ll try to contact the production company, or the director. It looks like the Director found them, and saw them dragged off stage, according to the Facebook link.

There’s another one of their songs credited in the film, but I can’t remember it actually being in the film. I might have to watch it again, which isn’t a particularly appealing prospect.

One of my favorite CDs ever–and I never would have guessed it from the quality of the production values–turned out to be by a semi-anonymous busker in Seattle. I was only able to get a replacement because my nephew (who gifted me the original CD) apparently knew the guy personally.

There is a great song on the 90s movie “Strange Days” called “No White Clouds” by a group called Strange Fruit. Back many years ago I tried to locate more songs from them, and I ended up finding out that they had more songs but I couldn’t locate any of them (this was even back in the days when Napster and other file sharing stuff had EVERYTHING). I even found an email address for one of the listed writers and asked her but I got shut down pretty quick lol.
