Release Notes:

To accompany the film adaptation of his own screenplay for the outback Western
THE PROPOSITION, revered Australian singer/songwriter Nick Cave enlisted his
occasional Bad Seeds bandmate, Warren Ellis, to create the moody score. Given
the movie's dark, gritty tone, these compositions are appropriately haunting and
elegiac, with Ellis's plaintive violin lines meshing hypnotically with Cave's
spare piano work and occasional vocal contributions. A darkly beautiful album
that will appeal to Nick Cave fans as well as fans of Ellis's other group, the
Dirty Three, this evocative soundtrack makes for a fascinating example of
musical storytelling
