ad marginum (original soundtrack)
agitated
'Ad Marginem' is both tightly controlled & claustrophobic, though it is not without a supersonic, dark & dense explosiveness, echoing Slint & Pink Floyd.
Mugstar are an instrumental rock band all the way from Liverpool, influenced by krautrock, Pink Floyd, Neu!, Sonic Youth and Oneida. Ad Marginem began life as a collaboration they forged with filmmaker liam yates, with Members of the band involved in writing, directing, editing & acting A tale of obsession & betrayal, it takes as a theme physical & social marginality & the music inspires the monochromatic eeriness perfectly. "Mugstar's soundtrack is spare & open, well suited to the dark and bleak aesthetic of the film itself." - the quietus.
