‘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.

Annihilation Soundtrack: Rolling Stone Tracks Down Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow To Talk About Their Acclaimed Score

With Annihilation, the duo crafted a mind-altering soundworld with acoustic guitar, orchestra, a touch of electronics and a four-note motif. – Andy Beta, Rolling Stone

Alex Garland’s Annihilation is one of the most talked-about films of the year, and that also extends into the score by Ivor Novello Award winning and Emmy® nominated composer Ben Salisbury and Beak>/Portishead’s Geoff Barrow.  The obsession and veneration expressed by movie and film music critics alike appears insatiable, and to add to the buzz is an interview with Andy Beta for Rolling Stone, who tracked down the composing duo in their Bristol homes!    Have you listened to the album or seen the film yet?
