Nathan Johnson with additional support and music fromThe Cinematic Underground . The score harkens back to the style, feel and overall texture of noir films. It features traditional instruments such as the piano, trumpet, and violin, but it also contains unique and invented instrument such as the wine-o-phone, metallophone, tack pianos, filing cabinets, and kitchen utensils, all recorded with one microphone on a battered-upPowerBook .According to the audio commentary of the "Brick" DVD, the score was composed almost entirely over

Jonathan Jarry from Soundtrack.net gave the score four stars saying, "This is a score that proudly stands on the fringe of what is called film music by most people. It will be hailed by its fans; it will be booed by the more conservative people among us. When all is said and done, however, how often are these polarizing scores composed and released? I say revel in Brick's insistent crave for originality before Hollywood hits us with yet another serving of reheated piano-and-strings crap."www.soundtrack.net - [http://www.soundtrack.net/soundtracks/database/?id=4247&vote=10 "Brick Soundtrack review"] by Jonathan Jarry]
