February 24 street date. Following his UK top 10 album "Seeking New Gods", Welsh musician/composer Gruff Rhys presents the original soundtrack for the film "The Almond & The Seahorse". The 22-track album comprises original songs and instrumental score, all composed by Gruff Rhys. Tonally, the soundtrack compliments the movie perfectly: the drama of the subject matter and the human relationships is counterbalanced by the film's wry humour and lightness of touch, and the varied compositions and styles on Rhys' score and compositions reflects that. The film tells the story of archaeologist (Rebel Wilson) and an architect (Charlotte Gainsbourg) and their fight to re-imagine a future after a traumatic brain injury leaves them adrift from the people they love.
The title of the film itself refers to the nicknames given to the parts of our brains that lay down new memories and hold on to the old ones. "The Almond & The Seahorse" is released as a foil numbered, limited edition transparent yellow double LP with a fold out film poster.
