Death Waltz Recording Company proudly brings John Carpenter and Alan Howarth’s score for Prince Of Darkness back into corporeal existence.

The second entry in Carpenter’s legendary “Apocalypse Trilogy”, nestled between The Thing and In The Mouth Of Madness, Prince Of Darkness explores the arrival of the Anti-Christ through the lens of science, antimatter, and theoretical physics. Though under-appreciated on release, the film has since earned a devoted cult following through home video and late-night rewatches.

Carpenter and Howarth’s score feels like a dream colliding with a nightmare. The main title theme immediately sets the tone, pairing ethereal voices with a classic Carpenter bassline to create a sense of eerie unease. Dissonant synth textures clash with more melodic passages, perfectly reflecting the collision between our world and the realm of the Anti-God.

Produced and remastered by Alan Howarth, with artwork by Sara Deck and sleeve notes by John Carpenter and Alan Howarth.
