Vinyl description on revolvermag.com
"John Carpenter has been responsible for much of the horror genre’s most striking soundtrack work in the fifteen movies he’s both directed and scored. The themes can instantly flood his fans’ musical memory with imagery of a menacing shape stalking a babysitter, a relentless wall of ghost-filled fog, lightning-fisted kungfu fighters, or a mirror holding the gateway to hell. The music on Lost Themes is there for Carpenter’s acolytes to visualize their own nightmares. As is Carpenter’s style, repetition is the key to the thundering power of these tracks, their energy swirling with shredding chords, soaring organs, unnerving pianos and captivating percussion. Horror fans will be reminded of Carpenter’s past works, as well as ancestors like Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells and Goblin’s Suspiria. “They’re little moments of score from movies made in our imaginations,” Carpenter says. “Now I hope it inspires people to create films that could be scored with this music.” Sacred Bones is now repressing this incredible debut by the one and only master of horror in a bunch of new colors in celebration of the label’s 15th year anniversary.
This Lost Themes vinyl variant is on "Cloudy Yellow Orange" wax and limited to only 300 copies, so order yours today!"

This pressing is unlistenable. Not sure I got a defective one but the surface noise, clicks and pops are louder than the music. I plan to try and exchange it, but I get the sense this is inherent in the shoddy pressing...

The color is unique, it looks like souls leaving the body of the vinyl, the pressing sounds terrific.
