Exciting news for fans of Halloween, John Carpenter and vinyl: Sacred Bones Records has started taking pre-orders for an expanded release of John Carpenter’s score for last year’s smash-hit Halloween, set to contain 28 minutes of previously unreleased music!
Having debuted last year at #12 on the Billboard Albums chart and #2 on the vinyl chart while on its way to becoming one of the most successful movie soundtracks of the last decade, Sacred Bones’ new lavishly packaged expanded edition of Carpenter’s score is spread out across two LPS, and comes with deluxe gatefold packaging with a lenticular sleeve that’ll make Halloween’s iconic Michael Myers “burn” when you slide it on and off the record jacket (check out a demo below).
Four variations of the expanded soundtrack are currently available for pre-order: the Glow-in-the-Dark Splatter Edition (limited to 1,000 pressings), the Society-exclusive “Bloody Jumpsuit” Edition (only 150), and the Standard Edition on orange and black LPs, as well as a CD option, all with a release date for all of October 18th, 2019.
