Ulver have unveiled a new album, Scary Muzak.
Out this weekend to coincide with Halloween, the album includes five covers of classic soundtrack works by John Carpenter, as well as a number of other original pieces inspired, a press release says, by "the aesthetics of the late ’70s and early ’80s popular culture." The release was born from a 2020 performance at a newly restored 1920s cinema in Oslo, during which the band presented a reimagined version of Carpenter’s 1978 score for the original Halloween movie, set to a screening of the film.
House Of Mythology will release Scary Muzak on October 31, 2021.
