John Carpenter - Halloween Kills (Music From The Film) [Exclusive Orange Vinyl]

• Only available by request

The scream team is back for the highly anticipated Halloween Kills, the follow up to 2018's Halloween. John Carpenter has returned to the studio with son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies to further expand on the iconic score that forever changed the course of horror cinema and synthesizer music.

The 2018 Halloween movie soundtrack received unanimous praise and brought a rich and ominous depth to the original theme music that was famously recorded on a shoestring budget in 1978. Now with the 'Halloween Kills' score, director David Gordon Green has pushed the musicians to be more experimental and take their modern sound to a chilling new level. Like all of Carpenter's legendary soundtracks, 'Halloween Kills' features incredible standalone music that like their "Lost Themes" trilogy of music made for imaginary films can be enjoyed thoroughly with or without the context of the film.

Like the film itself, Carpenter’s score to the second installment of the new Halloween trilogy, Halloween Kills, stays true to the spirit of what made the 1978 original great while bringing it firmly into the present. The music is unmistakably Carpenter: the sinister vintage synth tones, the breath-stealing sense of menace that he conjures with just a few dissonant notes. But with a broader sonic palette, new digital techniques at his disposal, and a deeper sense of musicality, the Halloween Kills score is the work of a master artist who nearly 50 years into his career continues to push his creative limits and find new ways to thrill and terrify his fans.

Exclusive ORANGE vinyl produced by Sacred Bones in 2021.
