and FNM with Bill playing guitar, it was produced by both bands and Ghetto Guerillas. The song Another Body Murdered was written by Boo Yaa T.R.I.B.E. Our scene is, we always try to make our own music and then loop it." - Samoan Godfather 1993 And it gives us a little edge on the rap scene. "Hopefully, this will open up more opportunities for groups like mine to tour with Metallica and Guns n' Roses. The Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E group leader Ted The Godfather Devoux, who sadly passed away on April 28th 2018 from an extended illness, said. The music on this soundtrack came from our 3rd attempt, which turned out ok, but sadly probably the least interesting of the three takes." - Bill Gould 2018 However, as luck would have it, the producer had forgotten to hit “record”. It was also really good, maybe not quite the same as the first attempt, but great nonetheless. So we did another, for probably another 30 minutes straight. Sadly, the engineers thought we were just soundchecking. Once the instruments were set up, we proceed to do a probably 30 minute jam, which I have to say was excellent. They were all great musicians in their own right, and what was surprising is that we clicked immediately on a musical level. "We didn’t know the Boo-Yaa guys before we did the collaboration…in fact, we met at the studio. Therefore only four members of the FNM (Patton, Gould, Bottum and Bordin) flew out to L.A to attend a recording session with Boo Yaa T.R.I.B.E. However there were casualties as long-time guitarist Jim Martin became alienated by the band's new direction. In late July of 93 FNM had finished a two year long tour supporting their album Angel Dust, this time had allowed the band to push the boundaries of their music further than ever before.

"First I had to get a hold of the managers and get them excited about the project. It Involved hard planning and heavy negotiations. The process of translating his vision into reality took six months to complete. It kind of made sense to do something that brings the together." "Since I manage Everlast, it sort of came ta pass that would handle the Soundtrack." The idea for a set cross-pollinating alternative noise with rap expression grew out of Walters’ realization that "a lot of alternative artists dig hip-hop and a lot of hip-hop artists like alternative. Judgment Night OST was the brainchild of Happy Walters, the then president of Immortal Records and manager of hip-hop bands such as House Of Pain and Cypress Hill.
