Original Motion Picture Soundtrack FAR FROM MEN Out Now

The latest ravishing score by Cave and Ellis is for director David Olehoffen's Far From Men and is out now on Bad Seed Ltd.
"Very often a tension can happen between music and picture that is about chance and a kind of unknowingness that can be really amazing. Just by putting together two things that were created in isolation, music and film, suddenly something quite magical can happen." - Nick Cave Far From Men was a triple prizewinner at the Venice film festival (2014) and stars Viggo Mortensen and Reda Kateb. Adapted from a short story by Albert Camus, it is a powerful tale of divided loyalties and colonialist violence during Algeria's war of independence. With its mesmeric drones, pointillist piano jabs, weeping strings and nerve-jangling electronics, this is one of the duo's most emotive and experimental soundtracks to date, sounding both achingly intimate and cosmically vast.Watch a trailer featuring original music from the film: http://smarturl.it/loindeshommesvid
