John Carpenter has announced his first non-soundtrack album in five years.
'Lost Themes III: Alive After Death', the follow-up to 2016’s ‘Lost Themes II’, is set to arrive via Sacred Bones on February 5. It found him again working with Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies, who he's composed and performed with as a trio since the first ‘Lost Themes’ LP back in 2015. The renowned horror director and composer said:
“We begin with a theme, a bass line, a pad, something that sounds good and will lead us to the next layer. We then just keep adding on from there. We understand each other's strengths and weaknesses, how to communicate without words, and the process is easier now than it was in the beginning. We’ve matured.”
