Lakeshore Records to release Seven Psychopaths
20-Oct-2012 -

Lakeshore Records will release the score for Seven Psychopaths. The album features original music by Carter Burwell (The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Parts 1 and 2, Burn After Reading).

“The score to Seven Psychopaths tries to accomplish two things, primarily,”
said Burwell. “One is to make the characters as Human and sympathetic as possible - or as one can make characters in a film titled Seven Psychopaths. Because the reality of the story and of the characters is so often subverted and reframed, it seemed a worthy challenge to draw the audience into the characters' own hearts and minds and emphasize their emotional reality.”

“The other important goal for the score was to make the ending of the story
redemptive,” Burwell explained. “Thus the musical theme that is used for The Quaker and The Vietnamese Priest does evolve in the end into the theme I called Redemption.  And hopefully the audience perceives this redemption as real and truly felt.”

Written and directed by Oscar®-winner Martin McDonagh, the comedy Seven Psychopaths
follows a struggling screenwriter (Colin Farrell) who inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends (Christopher Walken and Sam Rockwell) kidnap a gangster’s (Woody Harrelson) beloved Shih Tzu. Co-starring Abbie Cornish, Tom Waits, Olga Kurylenko and Zeljko Ivanek.

CBS Films presents Seven Psychopaths in theaters on October 12th, 2012. 
Seven Psychopaths – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack from Lakeshore Records will be available digitally on October 23rd and in stores on November 20th, 2012.
 
The score is available from Amazon.com, Amazon UK, Amazon France and Amazone Germany.
