Let Me Tell You About The Time That In This Moment’s Maria Brink Thought I Called Her A Whore
Yesterday, In This Moment released a lyric video for their brand new single “Whore”, which comes from their new album Blood (iTunes). You can watch the video below (courtesy of Revolver).
As the headline suggests, I want to tell you about the time that singer Maria Brink thought I called her a whore, because in hindsight it’s pretty damn funny. It happened when I did a phone interview with her back in 2010 and I brought up how in many of her photo shoots there was a strong horror element. Well, because phones don’t exactly have the best connection at all times (seriously, when is HD cell reception coming?) she misheard me and thought I said something along the lines of, “There are many WHORE elements in the photography…”. Probably the most horrifying moment was when she paused after my question and said, “Di…did you just call me a whore?” I burst out with something along the lines of, “NO! No I didn’t! I said ‘horror’! Like, stab murder kill!”
And that’s the story of how Maria Brink though I called her a whore.

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.”
