“Just like on Skeleton Tree, this melancholia is not used gratuitously, bathed in for its own sake; Cave and Ellis’ arrangements, sparse and spacious, move between moods with impressive tonal agility. Every stroke is expertly measured, every mantra passionately intoned.”  – Line of Best Fit

“WIND RIVER also boasts some of the most exciting music I have heard in cinema in recent time.”  – Screen Comment

Nick Cave and Warren Ellis have created the soundtrack for the promising thriller Wind River, and you can now listen to the masterful duo’s latest haunting creation from said soundtrack, “First Journey” – Paste

Since Ellis began working with Cave, this sense of exactingly careful detailing, always present in Cave’s lyricism, has been extended to his songs’ instrumental arrangements more completely than ever before, and this soundtrack displays his talent in this field to haunting effect.” Line of Best Fit
