Celan members to score a horrorflick!

August 24, 2009

Chris Spencer and Ari Benjamin Meyers of Incubate artist Celan will do the soundtrack of a new horrorfilm called ‘La Mute.’

Chris Spencer has always been a fan of blood, knives and half-dispoed-of remains of dead bodies. The album artwork for his now-on-hiatus band Unsane was always some kind of re-imagined urban murder scene. Sometimes they were a made-up display, while others — like the classic ‘Scattered, Smothered & Covered’ artwork, based on photos from Mexican death magazines — recreated real-life scenes. So it’s no surprise that Spencer, alongside his Celan bandmate Ari Benjamin Meyers, is composing a score to the French gore film ‘La Mute.’

The chance to work on the musical side of a horror movie came from the director telling Spencer that Unsane was the perfect soundtrack. “The director is a big Unsane fan,” Chris Spencer told Noisecreep. “And apparently he was listening to the track ‘East Broadway’ off ‘Visqueen’ — which has no vocals and is kind of industrial — while he was writing the screenplay.
