Cold Spring are proud to announce the official release of the soundtrack to Lars Von Trier’s controversial film ‘Antichrist’, available on physical format for the first time. Ten years after the film’s initial release, the extreme, provocative performances from Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg in ‘Antichrist’ still have the power to shock, repulse and divide.
The sound design by Kristian Eidnes Andersen with Lars Von Trier was composed using only natural sounds and samples (including internal body recordings). Each element was recorded specifically for the film and overseen by Von Trier, including a brand new, sombre performance of Händel’s ‘Lascia Ch’io Pianga’, recorded in Kastelskirken church in Copenhagen, 2009.
Pressed onto heavyweight 180 gram vinyl with an etched B-Side. Housed in a heavy 350g card full colour sleeve featuring the original theatrical release artwork.
Award winning Danish composer Kristian Eidnes Andersen has produced music and sound design for films, television and documentaries for 30 years, notably working with Lars Von Trier on the films Antichrist, The House That Jack Built, Dancer In The Dark, Melancholia, and Nymphomaniac (Vol I & II).
