Reception

David Ehrlich of IndieWire noted the score was influenced by the writing of Japanese composer Tōru Takemitsu and takes advantage of the events happening in the film. [6] David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter wrote "Bobby Krlic and Daniel Pemberton's ominous score is a good match for the needling quality shared by all four of Aster's features." [7] Tim Grierson of Screen International called it an "anxiety-inducing score". [8] Amy Nicholson of Los Angeles Times described it "a humming, whining score". [9]

Emma Kiely of Collider wrote "The score from Aster"s frequent go-to, Bobby Krlic, and Daniel Pemberton adds to the crime-thriller ambiance, with a low residual bass that reminds you that this is an Aster film, and nothing is ever as it seems." [10] Stephanie Zacharek of Time wrote: "the movie"s score, by the Haxan Cloak and Daniel Pemberton, is wonderful: there are sweeping passages of Elmer Bernstein-like jauntiness." [11] Damon Wise of Deadline Hollywood noted that the film is "scored with a suitably Western sting courtesy of composer[s] Daniel Pemberton [and Bobby Krlic]". [12]
