This is "Onslaught" - the title track from the forthcoming soundtrack for the new A24 Adam Wingard film of the same name, Onslaught. It's dark, pulsing and has a sinister mechanical vibe to it that reminds me of several NIN tracks. It also marks the first time Matthew Pusti, aka Makeup and Vanity Set, is providing the soundtrack for a full-length film of this size and caliber.

I've been a fan of MAVS for some 19 years, probably going back as far his chiptune remix of The Protomen from 2007. He's released several soundtracks in those two decades for various short films, game soundtracks, podcasts and indies - 88:88, HIT TV, Brigador (lots of Brigador), Jogger, Trackless, Mather, Foyer, Overpass, Radio Rental, To Live and Die in LA, A Good Woman is Hard to Find, The New Way Program, and loads more. He even conceptualized music for Wingard's Godzilla and wrote a bunch of songs for Stranger Things that, ultimately, weren't used. MAVS resume is massive and I'm so pleased to see him finally getting this opportunity.

Obviously with a body of work this huge, Pusti doesn't need a major film to validate his songwriting skills but, as a fan, I hope this brings an even larger group of folks to discover two decades of incredible songs! And if it leads to even more MAVS songs for more movies, that's a real bonus for us all.
