The soundtrack to the harrowing new Danny Boyle horror film ’28 days later’ is compiled and composed by prominent British film composer John Murphy who is best know his work on the ‘Snatch’ and ‘Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels’ soundtracks.
However the ‘28 days later’ soundtrack is somewhat different, it features 21 tracks of which 18 are composed by Boyle himself. Mainly consisting of post-rock influenced short tunes that symbolise key moments in the film. Taking his inspiration from such bands as ‘Mogwai’ and ‘Godspeed you! Black Emperor’ who’s song ‘East Hastings’ from the ‘F#OO#A’ album features in the film, but unfortunately doesn’t feature on the soundtrack due to being 20 minutes long.
The album however doesn’t just consist of slow apocalyptic rock. It also features a more avant-garde music such as ‘An Ending (Ascent)’ by legendry ambient pioneer ‘Brian Eno’ and a brilliantly upbeat token song, from US rockers ‘Grandaddy’. The climatic sound throughout the film is also contrasted with melancholy vocal performances from Perri Alleyne on 'Ave Maria' and 'Abide With Me'.
Overall Boyle uses a modern approach to score the film soundtrack with an appropriate choice of music that balances well with the films theme. The compostions completement the film, and is much better than a strung togeather compilation of the latest bands promoting their erelevant music. Whether you like the film or not, this is a great buy.

bought this because I couldn't get some of the music out opf my head after seeing the film. in particular the piece at the end of the film when the main character is running through the house (bit of droney guitar that builds to a great crescendo).
well, that's track 18, and in my opinion worth shelling a few quid out for and is already burnt onto a compliation CD. I notice it's actually been used somewhere else now too.
also like the Brian Eno track, often wondered who did that bit of music, now I know. the only other (mini)track I've really relistened to is the bit when they are getting chased up the tower block (track 6).
still I got what I was after.

I'm not a fan of horror or thriller. Nor am I much of a fan of horror soundtracks. But 28 Days Later..., film, soundtrack and all, just blew me away. The film itself is a mark of greatness; Danny Boyle has done an outstanding job, Alex Garland is a total genius and Cillian Murphy is as fit as ever, and as for music... John Murphy (et al) totally changed my opinion of film scores.
Like most horror film scores, the most tracks are typically rock based but with synths, vocals and virtual media (me thinks). The opening track stole a section of the film with random sounds from news programs, sirens and other random noises that all make up the rage theme. Enter the chilling synths, followed by what I guess is virtual media, with guitars pumping out power chords by the dozen to create the thrill. And you know what? It sounds *ace*! Everything fits into place, and if you've seen the film, you can just close your eyes and see it all again.
With additionals like Blue States, Grandaddy et al help to loosen the tense atomsphere and create a little fun in the music. Vocals such as Abide with Me create a sad, hopeless setting of sorrow and death, the words "Don't Wake Up" being replayed in your mind.
Having said all this, people do often say that seeing the film first helps. In many ways it does, but I still highly recommend it.

Atmospheric
The music on the CD comes directly from the film, so when you first hear it, you re-live the horror and tension of the film in your mind. Read more
