Released for the first time on any format, Cold Spring proudly presents the soundtrack to the 2020 sci-fi horror film 'Sputnik,' directed by Egor Abramenko. The bleak and hauntingly atmospheric film is accompanied by an impressively heavy soundtrack from Oleg Karpachev, who uses bombastic percussion, stirring strings, and otherworldly synths to convey the horror unfolding on screen. Set during Cold War Soviet Russia, the ominous film, starring Oksana Akinshina ('The Bourne Supremacy'), Fedor Bondarchuk, and Pyotr Fyodorov Jr., follows the story of a cosmonaut returning from space with a mysterious extraterrestrial organism; essential viewing for those with a penchant for 'Alien'-style body horror. Immense orchestral dissonance with an industrial edge. File next to Steven Price, Hans Zimmer, Ben Frost, In Slaughter Natives...
