Something that inspires me to create a thriller is in fact a soundtrack I heard over 2 years ago, an opening to Whitechapel's album "The Somatic Defilement", this song is titled "Necrotizing". The track is an instrumental that has been textured with creepy and sinister sounds that define the track, it opens with what sounds like high pitched sirens and drilling sounds, multiple different drills setting it to be clustered with no fixed beat, which makes things unnerving to hear. This makes me sum up a thriller film, to be creepy and scary for the audience, so this soundtrack fits very well. It also has a distorted voice, a voice that has been lowered while explaining something somewhat disturbing, this is also reminding me of a thriller film that has anticlimaxes with and again to make someone seem uneasy while watching the movie when a tense moment arrives. The soundtrack builds up from nothing into a thick texture of sounds, much like a scene in a thriller film that quickly or slowly builds up tension in a scene that can scare the audience, which the distorted voice helps to do to all the listeners of the sound track. The voice is confusing as we aren't completely sure why he is saying what he is saying, we can question ourselves to why and come up to many different conclusions but not necessarily being right. The puzzle is unanswered, which in a thriller film the enigma code is for man different puzzles in the film, and on the soundtrack the voice recreates this in a way. In a thriller movie however the enigma code is usually answered, and this code in the soundtrack may also be answered if the album is fully listened to, as the opening in a thriller movies starts the code, the opening in this album does the same.
