Nightmare Alley (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (Vinyl) (Import)
Mondo, in partnership with Hollywood Records and Searchlight Films, are proud to present the premiere physical release of Nathan Johnson’s beautiful and haunting score to Guillermo Del Toro’s 2021 Academy Award-Nominated film Nightmare Alley.
Those familiar with the incredible work of Nathan Johnson will not be surprised by his melody forward approach to such a dark and cynical film. Occasionally bleak but always gorgeous, the film delivers on its promise of grifters and hubris, but Nathan’s score balances the equation with a propulsive and somber and simple score.
Nathan Johnson and Guillermo Del Toro made beautiful music together. It is a brilliant partnership, one that I hope continues into future productions. Pressed on 2x 140 Gram Vinyl and housed in a gold-foil stamped gatefold jacket, wrapped in a foil stamped belly band, and featuring a bonus track by Hoagy Carmichael (“Stardust”) not available on the digital album.
