Sumerian Records have today released the 'American Psycho' Comic Series Soundtrack, available now on all streaming platforms at the link HERE. Exclusive vinyl is also available for purchase at the Sumerian Records Merch Store HERE.
In celebration of the release, Weathers has dropped their new, original song from the soundtrack "Killer", produced and co-written by Max Urasky (Maggie Lindemann, Siiickbrain) and No Love For the Middle Child (Travis Barker, Grandson), co-produced and mixed by Sean Beavan (Nine Inch Nails, Pantera). Stream "Killer" HERE and watch the official video below.
Speaking about the track, Weathers vocalist Cameron Boyer shared:
“'Killer' explores a dying relationship where you have been framed as a toxic villain, so you set out to kill this connection before falling victim to it, all the while, you just can’t help but still love them... We are also flattered to be among the many talented and established artists on the soundtrack. American Psycho is a movie we all love very much so we couldn’t help recalling so many of its iconic scenes during this whole process.”
President of Sumerian Comics, Nathan Yocum, commented:
"We’re thrilled to put out the full American Psycho Comic Series soundtrack today, a vibrant release shaped by some of the most talented artists in the industry today. This project captures the spirit of creative collaboration, with each track amplifying the energy and atmosphere of American Psycho in bold, unexpected ways. It’s not just a soundtrack—it’s an immersive experience that pulls listeners deeper into the dark, electrifying world this series creates."
The 'American Psycho' comic book series by Sumerian Comics is a bold reimagining of Patrick Bateman’s notorious saga. The five-issue series delves into a dual storyline format; one tracing the chilling exploits of Bateman, and the other introducing a contemporary narrative featuring Charlene Carruthers—a social media-savvy millennial whose descent into violence mirrors the chilling escalation of her predecessor. This innovative take reinterprets the iconic tale with a story written by Michael Calero (Quested), vivid artwork by Piotr Kowalski (The Witcher, Bloodborne, Sex) and striking colors by Brad Simpson (Kong of Skull Island, Stray Dogs, Blade Runner Origins).
Today's release joins previously released tracks from the likes of Diamante putting her iconic spin on Pat Benatar's "Love Is A Battlefield", Gvllow featuring Mothica who breathed new life into Billy Idol's "Eyes Without A Face", Charlotte Sands who dropped a massive cover of AFI's smash-hit "Miss Murder", Royal & The Serpent who tackled Leadbelly classic "Where Did You Sleep Last Night", Carpenter Brut feat. Kristoffer Rygg who also released a cover of Billy Idol's "Eyes Without A Face", Ice Nine Kills feat. Reel Big Fish, who gave the Katrina and The Waves smash hit, "Walking On Sunshine" the ska punk treatment, Puscifer, who recorded a brand new, original single, "The Algorithm" for the comic book series, Unlike Pluto who covered Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams", Perturbator, who covered "Dangerous" by Depeche Mode and Ramsey, who covered Leadbelly's "Where Did You Sleep Last Night". Between them, the previously released tracks have racked up over 5.8 million streams with current sales for the comic book series topping 80,000 units.
