Lost Themes IV: Noir is set to release May 3 via Sacred Bones Records.
Trio John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies have also collaborated to release a music video for “My Name Is Death”, the album’s first single. This miniature noir film directed by Ambar Navarro starring Natalie Mering, professionally known as Weyes Blood, Staz Lindes, known as The Paranoyds and Misha Lindes known as SadGirl.
The scene-setting single marks new territory for Carpenter and his cohorts, propelled by a driving post-punk bassline that is embellished by washes of atmospheric synth, pulsing drum machine, and, at the song’s climax, a smoldering guitar solo.
