The New Pollutants Metropolis Rescore is a new soundtrack to the 2010 Restoration Version of Fritz Lang's classic sci-fi epic Metropolis

The New Pollutants are the musical duo of Mister Benjamin Speed http://benjaminspeed.com and DJ TR!P   / finddjtrip  . They are thrilled to present their newly composed score to Fritz Lang's classic silent film Metropolis. They perform the score live, accompanied by vocalist Astrid Pill & cellist Zoe Barry.

The original score was conceived, composed & recorded over a 12-month period & had its world premiere at the 2005 Adelaide Film Festival. The Metropolis Re-Score ran a successful season as part Next Wave Festival at ACMI in Melbourne for the Commonwealth Games & was performed at the Revelation Perth International Film Festival in 2006. They played it at the Sydney Opera House in 2010 & in Hobart for Mona Foma 2011, which is curated by Brian Ritchie of the Violent Femmes.

In 2011, The New Pollutants have updated & extended their score to coincide with the newly released 2010 restoration, which includes 30 minutes of newly found footage. This will once again premiere at the Adelaide Film Festival in 2011. After the film premiere in 1927, Metropolis has been seen only in shortened or truncated versions, now it can be appreciated in its full glory, with a brand new score by The New Pollutants.
