Reznor and Ross's Golden Globe Win Fuels Anticipation for Intergalactic Soundtrack
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the upcoming Naughty Dog game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have won a Golden Globe for Best Original Score for their work on Challengers. This win adds significant excitement to the already anticipated Intergalactic soundtrack.
The recent Intergalactic trailer showcased a preview of Reznor and Ross's composition, alongside licensed tracks. Known for their collaboration in Nine Inch Nails and acclaimed scores for films like The Social Network and Soul (which also earned them Academy Awards), the duo's diverse musical range is evident. Reznor's previous video game work includes the soundtrack for Quake (1996) and the main title track for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Accepting the Golden Globe from Elton John and Brandi Carlile, Ross described the Challengers score as "never a safe choice, but always the right one." The contemporary electronic style perfectly complements the film's themes. Given their impressive track record, the Intergalactic soundtrack is poised to be exceptional.
Golden Globe Success Highlights Intergalactic's Potential
The unlikely pairing of Nine Inch Nails' industrial rock roots with the worlds of film and gaming has proven remarkably successful for Reznor and Ross. Their ability to adapt their style, creating haunting soundscapes for The Social Network and ethereal pieces for Soul, now extends to the potentially horror-themed Intergalactic.
The Golden Globe win further amplifies anticipation for Intergalactic, which could mark a significant shift for Naughty Dog. With no prior missteps in their extensive portfolio, Reznor and Ross promise a captivating auditory experience for Intergalactic, regardless of the final game's content.
