Varèse Sarabande release Sergio Moure's score for Extinction. For nine years, Patrick, Jack and his daughter Lu have outlasted the zombie apocalypse by shutting themselves off in the snowbound town of Harmony. The monsters have seemingly disappeared, with no sign of other survivors, but the constant fear of the unknown is starting to take a toll on this makeshift family. When Patrick goes scavenging for food, he discovers the undead have returned and evolved into something terrifying, beyond imagination. Will the last breath of the human race survive a second zombie apocalypse...?

Sergio Moure's score for Extinction is probably not what you'll be expecting from a zombie apocalypse movie.

Tracks like 'New World' and 'Lu's Birthday' are subtle and beautiful, slowly unfolding to tell their own mini-stories. But I have to highlight the album's closing track, 'A New Home', as the most intricate and beautiful segment of music on the album.

The score contains 25 tracks (1 hr, 07 min, 38 sec) and while not an essential score, there are enough quality themes here to make it worth your time picking up.
