‘Annihilation’: Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow Score Review | Brooklyn Vegan

1 Comment

The film gets pretty freaky in its last third, and Salisbury and Barrow’s score matches its intensity. A four note section of “The Alien” (which is used prominently in the trailer) has taken on a life of its own. – Brooklyn Vegan

If you’ve seen Annihilation in theaters, then you’ll know exactly what it means when critics use the words “intense” and “obsessed” in their reviews of Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow’s score.  Check out the latest review at Brooklyn Vegan and compare notes.  Even if you haven’t seen the highly-anticipated film by Ex-Machina Director Alex Garland, you can have a listen at the soundtrack below to get a taste of what to expect, even though the sci-fi thriller itself is beyond words.
