The details of the soundtrack album for Darren Aronofsky’s psychological drama The Whale have been revealed. The album features the film’s original music composed by Rob Simonsen (Ghostbusters: Afterlife, The Way Back, Foxcatcher, Nerve, The Adam Project, (500) Days of Summer). The soundtrack will be released digitally this Friday, December 9 by A24 Music. Visit Amazon or any other major digital music services to stream/download the album. A first track (Midnight Storm) was already released as a digital single last month.

Hunter and tells the story of a reclusive English teacher who attempts to reconnect with his estranged teenage daughter.
