Album lore
Colin Stetson’s 2022 score for The Menu, released on Milan Records, unfolds across 14 tracks that intertwine elements of bluegrass with the conventions of cinematic scoring. The soundtrack traces the film’s contours with pieces like “The Purifying Flame” and “A Revolution in Cuisine,” blending acoustic textures and woodwind timbres characteristic of Stetson’s signature approach. Recorded as a companion to a narrative steeped in culinary intrigue, the album’s titles—such as “The First Cheeseburger You Ever Ate” and “Taco Tuesday”—offer a nod to its thematic preoccupations.Rather than conforming to a traditional orchestral palette, the soundtrack favors an intimate, sometimes sparse instrumentation that accentuates tension and nuance. Its resonance lies in the way it frames the film’s atmosphere without overwhelming, providing a discrete yet insistent presence throughout. This soundtrack occupies a distinct corner within the 2022 canon of score releases, appealing to listeners attuned to how bluegrass inflections can underpin cinematic moods.
