Stands on its own...

"With or without having seen the movie, this soundtrack stands on its own. Deep, intense, moody, oddly uplifting. If you've seen the movie, your listening experience can only be enhanced. If you haven't, you'll surely want to. "Rather Lovely Thing," "Another Rather Lovely Thing," and "What Happens Next" are my favorite tracks, but each cut has the power to draw you in and hold you there until the next arrives. Buy it. You won't regret it."
A haunting and truly origional soundtrack

"Nick Cave and Warren Ellis have crafted a score that will haunt you and make you think about the characters rise and fall. As Bernard Hermann once said, "A score should carry the emotions when nothing is being said". these composers have done just that.
These two epic composers also collaborated on The Proposition, which if you decide to buy this album I recommend this film as well."

"It's a great soundtrack. The music features largely in the movie and the soundtrack takes you right there."
