Earthsonix Records has released a soundtrack album for the documentary Apocalypse ’45. The album features the film’s original music composed by Mark Leggett (My Name Is Earl, Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings, Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors, American Romance). The soundtrack is now available to stream/download on Amazon (and other digital music stores), where you can also check out audio samples. Apocalypse ’45 is directed by Erik Nelson and spotlights the sacrifices of the greatest generation as America and the world grapples with the meaning and consequences of World War II. The movie combines pristine raw, color film footage of the last months in the War in the Pacific with the voices of the two dozen men who lived through the nightmarish events. The documentary was released in virtual cinemas last summer by Abramorama before premiering on the Discovery Channel on Labor Day weekend.
