The Master of Horror returns with an album both ambitious and extrovert
John Carpenter's films have power and force even just by visual means. Add to his claustrophobic, impactful cinematography those chilling, minimalistic synthpieces he - often in collaboration with Alan Howarth - conjured up, and you've got a recipe for films that not only stand the test of time, but have also influenced countless of other filmmakers and musicians in a great variety of genres over the years. Though Carpenter is in some way retired from filmmaking, he has been keeping busy with music instead. 2015 saw his debut non-soundtrack album, Lost Themes, with the follow up album, Lost Themes II, coming out in 2016.
