Two CDs. Nonesuch releases the soundtrack for Luca Guadganino's film After The Hunt, which stars Julia Roberts, Ayo Edebiri, Andrew Garfield, Michael Stuhlbarg and Chloë Sevigny. After The Hunt is a gripping psychological drama written by Nora Garrett about a college professor (Julia Roberts) who finds herself at a personal and professional crossroads when a star student (Ayo Edebiri) levels an accusation against one of her colleagues (Andrew Garfield), and a dark secret from her own past threatens to come into the light. As with almost all of Guadagnino's films - beginning with I Am Love and including Call Me By Your Name- the double album soundtrack, compiled by Guadagnino and Matthew Rankin, comprises multiple recordings by composer John Adams, as well as new music by Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross (Challengers, Bones And All, Queer), and a selection of songs featured in the film by Tony Bennett & Bill Evans, The National, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Everything But The Girl, among others.

InchThat song is a higher level look at my whole life and the whole world,Inch explains vocalist/guitarist David F. Bello, Inchas well as the album, our band and our discography. It places the band in the context of the rest of the world, as if we're listening to everything that came before. It touches on all the themes of the previous songs, but there are also callbacks to songs from earlier in our career. But in this song, they're the object, not the subject-I'm talking about a world in which these things happen, not talking about these things happening.InchDue to the coronavirus pandemic, the band-completed by Steven K. Buttery (drums and percussion), Joshua Cyr (bass/vocals) and Katie Dvorak (vocals/synth)-had nothing but time to realize the full extent of their musical and thematic aspirations. And so, four years on from lauded third album Always Foreign, they were able to make what is undoubtedly the band's most ambitious and epic record to date. Written and recorded remotely-a first for the band-Illusory Walls takes on the weight of human existence while it's buckling under the pressure of today's near-dystopian society. Personal anxieties and political struggles collide with a series of portentous
