John Carpenter has announced a new music project called Cathedral, which releases as in album format on August 7 via Sacred Bones, paired with a graphic novel of the same name, out August 4 via Storm King Comics.
In a press announcement, Carpenter says the project was inspired by a dream. “It was so cinematic and vivid...I thought, ‘I have to score this.’ It’s kind of our first heavy metal album.”
"Inspired by a vividly cinematic dream he had in 2024, the story centers on an abandoned church in downtown Los Angeles that shifts from a forgotten building to the site of a waking nightmare," the press release states of the premise.
