I haven't yet seen the movie, so I don't know the contexts in which each song is featured in the film. But I can hear the desolate, somber strains of music calculated to induce a certain mood and to set a scene that the listener can envision in his mind's eye. And though I find it difficult to term any soundtrack a masterpiece due to their fragmented natures, this is one that comes awfully close.
If you enjoyed the Cave/Ellis soundtrack for The Proposition, you are certainly going to like this. If you are a Cave/Ellis fan of their other musical lives and have not yet heard one of their soundtracks, you are in for a rather shocking surprise. The buyer gets nearly 45 minutes of dark, atmospheric music and a very attractive booklet featuring essential data and scenes from the film. Don't miss this!

With regards to Leone's westerns, how integral was the music of Ennio Morricone to the finished product? VERY integral! Put simply, those films would not be the same without the stirring music infusing each sweaty, elongated scene.
The thing is, to my mind, Cave and Ellis have actually bettered the soundtrack maestro Morricone with this release. This music is remarkable. Each tune is dripping with emotion, featuring melancholy minor chord changes executed on piano and strings. Warren Ellis' violin work is stunning - he makes the instrument ache and sob and scrape and cry. I have listened to these compositions on repeat play and literally weeped like a baby!
I was going to use this review to pinpoint highlights from this album, but - to be honest - I can't. Every tune is a winner. Just when you think the sounds can't get any more heartbreaking...THEY DO! This is the kind of music that evokes feelings of nostalgia, loves lost; a beautiful, irredeemable past.
I listened to this album with my brother last night. As the last tune "Song For Bob" played out, my bro uttered (without any kind of irony): "That is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard."
And d'you know what? He was right.
I urge you to buy this album. No, scratch that - I IMPLORE you to buy this album!
A final word - thank you to Nick Cave and Warren Ellis for enriching my life. I will take this music to the grave with me.
This emotive and beautiful music; takes me back to a movie I remember fondly, helps me to concentrate on my work and soothes me which no music has been able to do before!
My only qualm is that one of my favorite songs (All things beautiful) is not on this CD but you can easily access it on youtube.
Where my generation bops their head to Skrillex's as they look forward to their next concert, I sit back, relax and close my eyes as I drift away to a time long gone but not forgotten.
In fact, 'good' is to sell this soundtrack very short. it is one of the most emotive and compelling collection of songs I have heard in a long time. The compositions are moody, atmospheric, at times melancholy and often very moving.
Don't miss out on something very special.
