Exclusive NSFW Video Premiere: Slaine’s ‘Trail Of Blood’ UNCENSORED
Slaine: It’s a real personal record where I confront a lot of my demons and tell my life story.
Slaine: I have had a lot of people close to me addicted to heroin where it sucked the life out of them and killed them. The first verse was about a family member who contracted AIDS from shooting dope. The second verse I wanted to portray how ugly murder really is rather than glorify it the way a lot of hip hop does.
Slaine: No it wasn’t a video I planned on doing. Los Silva shot a lot of the story on his own showed it to me and we built the rest from there.
Slaine: No. The only horror in any of the music I do is based in reality.
Slaine: Tour and spread my message as much as I possibly can.
Slaine: I finished shooting a movie with Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini, and Ray Liotta called Cogans Trade in April. It’ll be out in March 2012. Right now though I’m focused on my music. This is my heart and soul right now.
It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.
Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.
Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.
“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.
“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
