They Live (remastered) vinyl

Death Waltz were one of 2012?s most impressive new labels; under the watchful eye of Rough Trade East's Spencer Hickman they reissued soundtracks from several Carpenter films as well as the scores of Zombie Flesh Eaters, The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue, Donnie Darko and 2008 Swedish horror film Let The Right One In, all with striking bespoke artwork rendered just for their vinyl reissues. Their appreciation for the work of John Carpenter continues here with an expanded reissue of the director's 1988 cult hit They Live. Given that They Live is one of the rare Carpenter films to straddle the horror, science-fiction and thriller genres, its no surprise that the score - composed by Carpenter himself and longtime collaborator Howarth - is one of the more intriguing efforts to grace a Carpenter film. Expect a journey through electronic blues graved with a dusty slow pulsating western feel.
