Reznor and Ross's Golden Globe Win Fuels Anticipation for Intergalactic Soundtrack
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the soundtrack for Naughty Dog's upcoming game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have won a Golden Globe for Best Original Score for their work on Challengers. This award adds to their impressive list of accolades, which includes an Academy Award and multiple Grammys.
The recent Intergalactic trailer showcased a preview of their work, blending original compositions with licensed tracks. Reznor and Ross, known for their collaboration with Nine Inch Nails and scores for films like The Social Network and Soul, are no strangers to the gaming world; Reznor previously created the soundtrack for Quake and the main theme for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Accepting their Golden Globe for the Challengers score, Ross described the music as "never a safe choice, but always the right one." The contemporary electronic soundscape perfectly complements the film's themes of athleticism and sensuality. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.
Golden Globe Success Underscores Intergalactic's Potential
The duo's versatility is evident in their diverse musical styles, ranging from the industrial rock of Nine Inch Nails to the atmospheric scores of The Social Network and Soul. Online hints suggest a horror element in Intergalactic, making their musical choices even more fitting.
This Golden Globe win further elevates Reznor and Ross's profiles, generating excitement for Intergalactic, which may represent a bold new direction for Naughty Dog. With their impeccable track record, the game's soundtrack promises to be exceptional, regardless of the final game content.
