Exclusively re-mastered for this vinyl release including six tracks that never made it into the original film. JOHN CARPENTER not only directed Escape From New York but also composed and recorded all of its music too. This score sounds as fresh today as it did when it was first released. Laden with brooding electronic pulses, flashes of Krautrock and healthy dose of nu disco ensures that this soundtrack sounds as happy on the dance floor as it is in your headphones. Exclusive cover art by JAY SHAW (aka IRON JAIDEN) one of the most in demand poster artists working today, his recent work has been selling out in minutes creating a huge demand on the aftermarket. Jay is heavily influenced by the abstract posters of the polish film industry and is not afraid to experiment with his work. Sleeve Notes from ALAN HOWARTH. Packaged with an A2 poster.

Label: Death Waltz Records

About Sorry State:
we ship every day except Monday, when we are closed. Most items ship within 24 hours most records we sell are on black vinyl, or at least the least limited version. We will not open sealed records to check the vinyl color for you, sorry all records are shipped well-packed in professional mail orders. Larger orders ($100+) are shipped double-boxed for added protection unless stated otherwise, all records are in new / unplayed condition. Note, however, that we sell many hand-assembled, DIY releases that do not come factory shrink-wrapped and may occasionally show fingerprints or other signs of light handling items are not reserved for you until you complete payment through paypal; if you choose not to pay right away there is a small chance that a customer could buy your item in our retail store, in which case you will receive a full refund. This happens extremely rarely, though we are happy to combine shipping for multiple items; ebay's shipping calculator should return the best rate for most orders
