Listen To Trent Reznor’s Cover Of The HALLOWEEN Theme Right Here

Yesterday we learned that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (the dynamic, Oscar-winning duo who scored David Fincher's The Social Network and Gone Girl) were on the verge of releasing a surprise cover of John Carpenter's Halloween theme.

Late last night, that cover dropped, and - as expected - it's fantastic. 

The track, which can be heard in the video above, can be acquired via Amazon or Apple Music, all for the wildly reasonable price of just ninety-nine cents. Those with a taste for physical media are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled: given that Sacred Bones (who released the track in conjunction with Reznor's Null Corporation) is a vinyl-heavy outfit, we wouldn't be surprised to see this track made available on a 7" pressing sometime in the near future. 

What do you folks think? We're loving what Reznor and Ross have done with this, and are now daydreaming about a scenario wherein the pair team up with Carpenter to take on the soundtrack for David Gordon Green and Danny McBride's forthcoming Halloween (pseudo)sequel.
