Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow have received praise for their score for Alex Garland’s sci-fi film ‘Annihilation.’ Described by critics as “pulsing” and “otherworldly,” Ben and Geoff’s electronic score is one of the forces that transforms ‘Annihilation’ from a genre adventure film into an impressively ambitious thriller.<\/p>\n

“Annihilation<\/i>\u00a0boasts one of the most audacious climaxes in recent cinema history, and its music is just as haunting.”\u00a0\u2013 Andy Beta, Rolling Stone<\/p>\n
\u201cThe rumbling, churning electronic score by Ben Salisbury and Portishead’s Geoff Barrow, who previously collaborated on the score to\u00a0Ex Machina,\u00a0<\/i>finds a path directly to the viewer’s anxiety button and presses it incessantly.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter<\/p>\n
“The film gets pretty freaky in its last third, and Salisbury and Barrow\u2019s score matches\u00a0its intensity. A four note section of \u201cThe Alien\u201d (which is used prominently in the trailer) has taken on a life of its own.”\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Bill Pearis, Brooklyn Vegan<\/p>\n
