A LONELY PLACE TO DIE/PLOWMAN

Listening to this at the moment. The clips sound good but I am finding the first track, "The Burning of Achindoun", truly atrocious. I don't like the vocals and the accent sounds more Irish (I am assuming it is meant to be Scottish) and the accent is as thick as someone from MGM-Brigadoon-Land would deliver.

It's funny that in the publicity notes the composer says "We wanted a small amount of Celtic in the score, but not enough to attract attention to itself."!!

So far though, tracks 2-4 are excellent!

The winner of the awards for Best Film and Best Director at ActionFest, a ”must-see” according to Fangoria and ”one of the best action thrillers I’ve seen in recent years” in the words of Ain’t It Cool News, A Lonely Place to Die premieres in UK cinemas on September 6 with international distribution to follow.

The soundtrack album from MovieScore Media is the label’s second with up and coming composer Michael Richard Plowman, whose “compelling, rousing score” for Age of Heroes delivered an “evocative and stirring amount of melody and passion” according to the Boston Examiner. The orchestral score for A Lonely Place to Die features a lot of exciting action tracks, tense suspense and also a lot of beautiful melodic writing.

Said Plowman, “I wanted a large percussive palette, and then which I know was the right call was to have almost classical lyrical score peppered throughout the film. We wanted a small amount of Celtic in the score, but not enough to attract attention to itself. The almost lyrical classical score was an added touch that took it away form being generic.”
