Nick Cave & Warren Ellis. The Road Original Film Score. CD.

Originally released 4th January 2010, Nick Cave and Warren Ellis soundtrack to The Road, a movie directed by John Hillcoat. This big screen adaptation of the bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Road by Cormac McCarthy (author of No Country For Old Men) sees Academy Award-nominee Viggo Mortensen leading an all-star cast featuring Charlize Theron, Robert Duvall, Guy Pearce and young newcomer Kodi Smit-McPhee. An epic post-apocalyptic tale of survival of a father and his young son journeying across a barren America destroyed by a mysterious cataclysm, The Road boldly imagines a future in which men are pushed to the worst and the best that they are capable of -- a future in which a father and his son are sustained by love. Nick Cave and Warren Ellis created an evocative score featuring violin and piano with beautiful fleeting melodies and eerie sound loops filled with terror and suspense.
