Music For Our Thriller

The type of music that we will incorporate into our thriller will be kind of 1970's style hard rock, as this kind of music has the aggression that a film like ours requires. Hard rock is often used in the action-thriller genre, in films such as Terminator 2, The Expendables and Shoot 'Em Up.  Some examples of the kinds of bands whose music we would use if we had the rights would be bands like Thin Lizzy, Budgie, George Thoroughgood & The Destroyers and Guns N' Roses (who aren't 70's but that's beside the point). Rock N' Roll and violence are often stereotypically associated, due the the loud, awesome nature of rock. It also ties in with the typical active fans of Rock, most often teenagers and young men who indulge in antisocial behaviours such as listening to loud music, excessive drinking and smoking, drug use and, most relating to our thriller, getting into fights and destruction of property. The characters in our film would be described by the audience as 'Badass', and being total badasses, they would listen to classic hard rock. Of course, the actual soundtrackwill be by the Dakota Stars, as we have been given permission by the artist to use their songs.
