Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross continue to cement a reputation for themselves as one of the most exciting composing duos working today.

Ever since the pair first teamed up for The Social Network - for which they received a Best Original Score Oscar - Reznor and Ross have scored an impressively diverse slate of pictures, including their first animated film in 2020, Pixar's Soul, for which they each scooped an additional Oscar.

Reznor and Ross' work on this movie is absolutely wild - a boldly freeform digital jazz session that leaps from gorgeously relaxing synths to more discordant electronic drum tracks.

And if that's not good enough, the score has arguably some of the greatest track titles ever conceived, such as "Dips**ts on a Roof," "Murder the Shreks!," "I Just Met You and You Almost Killed Me," and "Better Than Mark Ruffalo."
