John Carpenter Enters a ‘Utopian Façade’ with New Video

The legendary John Carpenter isn't just a master of horror; his latest video exhibits his longstanding, equally impressive musical prowess. The video for "Utopian Facade" isn't directed by the film legend — that honor goes to Gavin Hignight and Ben Verhulst — but it does feature the Lost Themes II track (order yours) with a prototypical sci-fi chase scene in tow. It's awesome, beautifully shot and enough to make you want to fly out to the EU to catch the icon on his latest batch of tour dates. Check it out below.
