Punisher

“TWO DOWN…” The Punisher has cut a bloody swath through the organized crime families of prohibition-era New York City and now they’re starting to fight back. Does Frank have what it takes to take down Jigsaw and Barracuda? The real question is, will there be anything left of him, if he does?

Tyler Bates has been hired to score Marvel’s upcoming Netflix original series The Punisher. The show is developed by Steve Lightfoot (Hannibal) based on the Marvel Comic character and stars Jon Bernthal in the title role, alongside Ben Barnes, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Amber Rose Revah, Deborah Ann Woll, Daniel Webber, Jason R. Moore, Paul Schulze and Jaime Ray Newman. The series revolves around Frank Castle, who after the murder of his family, is both haunted and hunted and becomes known as The Punisher in the criminal underworld. Lightfoot is also executive producing the Marvel Television and ABC Studios production with Jim Chory & Jeph Loeb (Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Legion). The Punisher is set to premiere later this year on Netflix.

Phoebe Bridgers doesn’t write love songs as much as songs about the impact love can have on our lives, personalities, and priorities. Punisher, her fourth release and second solo album, is concerned with that subject. To say she writes about heartbreak is to undersell her blue wisdom, to say she writes about pain erases all the strange joy her music emanates. The arrival of Punisher cements Phoebe Bridgers as one of the most clever, tender and prolific songwriters of our era.
