John Carpenter Instagram – Today @johncarpenterofficial , Cody Carpenter @ludrium and @daniel_davies announce details of forthcoming album ‘Lost Themes IV: Noir’, set for release on the 3rd of May on @sacredbones . The lead single and scene-setting album opener “My Name Is Death”, feels like new territory for Carpenter. A driving, almost punkish bassline initiates the action, before being joined by washes of atmospheric synth, pulsing drum machine, and, at the song’s climax, a smoldering guitar solo. If the goal of the Lost Themes project is to create music that’s as cinematic as anything we can picture in our heads, “My Name Is Death” might be the group’s most successful effort yet.
The accompanying video, starring Carpenter, Carpenter and Davies alongside Natalie Mering (@weyesblood ), Staz Lindes (@theparanoyds ) and Misha Lindes (@wearesadgirl ) is a miniature noir movie in itself, directed by Ambar Navarro and produced by Hannah Kinlaw. John Carpenter comments: “Noir is a uniquely American genre born in post-war cinema. We grew up loving Noir and were influenced by it for this new album. The video celebrates this style and our new song, My Name is Death.”
