ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK HEREDITARY Limited Numbered Translucent Green 180gram Audiophile Vinyl 2LP Set

Overview:

Hereditary is a 2018 American psychological horror film written and directed by Ari Aster in his feature directorial debut. He later went on to direct Midsommar (2019) and Beau Is Afraid (2023). The movie stars Toni Collette, Alex Wolff, Milly Shapiro, Ann Dowd, and Gabriel Byrne.

When Ellen, the matriarch of the Graham family, passes away, her daughter’s family begins to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry. The more they discover, the more they find themselves trying to outrun the sinister fate they seem to have inherited.

The soundtrack for the movie was written, arranged and produced by Colin Stetson. Aster tried to keep it simple for Stetson regarding the music, but he wanted one thing to be apparent: the music had to “feel evil”. Stetson explained that he tried to look at the score as though it was a character in the film, the character of the unfolding narrative. With this score, he tried to avoid certain ubiquitous tropes found in film scoring and used sound sources to accomplish different ends. Stetson wanted that the music developed as the narrative progressed.

Hereditary is available as a limited edition of 500 numbered copies on translucent green coloured vinyl. This 2LP is housed in a gatefold sleeve that includes liner notes by the director, Ari Aster.
