Now John Carpenter is teaming with son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies to record an all new album of his greatest themes; the trio had previously worked together on two albums of the elder Carpenter’s non-film compositions. The greatest hits – currently available for preorder and entitled Anthology: Movie Themes 1974 – 1998 – will be released through Sacred Bones Records on standard LP, limited edition LPs, CD, and through digital download on October 20th. Of special note on the track list is the inclusion of the theme from The Thing which was actually scored by famed composer Ennio Morricone. The Carpenters (no not THOSE Carpenters silly) will even be setting off on a fourteen city tour, which even includes Halloween night in L.A.!
