HAMMER OF THE GODS (2013)

Original score by Benjamin Wallfisch. Guitars by Owen Gurry.

Owen was tasked with writing guitar parts to fit the brutal, harsh and dirty aesthetic of Hammer of the Gods. Some of his parts used on the score are recognisably guitar – heavy, aggressive and unrelenting; other parts were mangled and manipulated to not sound like guitars at all.
Owen also contributed to the music for the closing credits, which was nominated for a Hollywood Music In Media Award (Original Song – Feature Film).
