HALLOWEEN ENDS SOUNDTRACK ALBUM AND BOY HARSHER “BURN IT DOWN” MAXI-SINGLE RELEASED DIGITALLY WITH PHYSICAL RELEASES COMING JANUARY 20, PREORDER NOW
After 45 years, the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history has reached its epic, terrifying conclusion with today’s theatrical release of Halloween Ends, in which Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers. When the franchise relaunched in 2018, Halloween shattered box office records, becoming the franchise’s highest-grossing chapter and setting a new record for the biggest opening weekend for a horror film starring a woman. In 2021, Halloween Killsearned the biggest opening weekend for any horror film in the pandemic era and simultaneously set a new record for a non-live event premiere streaming on Peacock.
As Halloween Ends marks the last chapter of the trilogy directed by David Gordon Green, it also ushers in the return of original composer and director of 1978’s Halloween, John Carpenter, who composed the new film’s score alongside longtime collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies. The Halloween Ends Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is available now digitally, with physical editions to follow on January 20th via Sacred Bones. The film is also augmented by original music by dark dance outfit Boy Harsher. Sacred Bones and Nude Club/City Slang joined forces to release their contribution to the soundtrack “Burn It Down“, a maxi single containing two songs and their instrumental versions, also released digitally today with 12″ vinyl EP to follow on January 20th, 2023.
Similar to the last two soundtracks, Halloween Ends was recorded in its entirety at John Carpenter’s home studio and Daniel’s studio. The soundtrack of the third installment broadens old themes whilst creating new ones in an effort to bring renewed life to one of the most epic horror scores ever written. The general atmosphere is one of dread, yet the record includes some groove laden moments reminiscent of Escape From New York or some of Carpenter’s other more dance-able scores. Exquisite and delicate ambient pieces weave their way between some of the score’s more arresting moments and yet maintain a subtle pop sensibility. The overall achievement showcases three master musicians, one of whom invented the entire horror-synth genre, crafting an evocative, playful, and deeply listenable score that honours a legacy and expands on the decades of work that have been leading to this triumphant climax.
