Altered Zones

Director Matthew Lessner's The Woods, which will premiere at Sundance this year, is the story of a group of young revelers seeking to disconnect from modern society and sojourn in a new sylvan homestead. The interplay between bourgeois values and technology, along with the consequences of trying to subvert them, forms one of the film's central themes. Fitting then that Los Angeleno and dark dub warrior Sun Araw contributed this cyborg-morphic cover of Neil Young's "Thrasher". Originally, Sun Araw was supposed to score the entire film, but the soundtrack ended up featuring tunes by Dirty Projectors, Lucky Dragons, and more. Dense grooves from the West coast. Peep the trailer below. (via Chocolate Bobka)
