If you enjoyed the music of Trick ‘r Treat, then I highly recommend getting ready for composer Douglas Pipes‘ score to Michael Dougherty’s latest holiday horror treat Krampus, which hits theaters next Friday, December 4th.Artwork for Digital/CD/Vinyl:
The soundtrack, which comes out the same day as the film, will be released on CD and digital via Back Lot Music while the vinyl release will be handled by Waxwork Records, who also did a fantastic job with their Trick ‘r Treat release. The digital edition contains a bonus track titled “Krampus Karol of the Bells”, which is a rewritten version of “Carol of the Bells”.
Pipes explains his inspiration and keeping with the theme of Christmas, stating, “We used melodies of Christmas carols, sometimes just fragments, sometimes altered, as well as traditional Christmas instruments throughout.” He continues, “The greatest challenge for the score was moving through Christmas themes and comedy, into a dark fantasy tale, punctuated by aggressive horror music, without losing the thread of any of these styles – all the while keeping the Christmas spirit present.”
