Somebody told me about that first album and I bought it. If you bump into someone in the street, and they tell you about an album, I'm a great believer in getting that album, following those kind of leads. I couldn't believe it when I played it. It was compulsive, this compulsive crescendo of music. Everybody goes on about The Polyphonic Spree, but these guys are the real thing, in terms of primal orchestral drive, really connecting modern culture with orchestral principles, building, leaving you in places you hadn't been before. I was convinced straight away. And then we started doing the film. I always try to have a soundtrack in my mind. Like when we did Trainspotting, it was Underworld. For me, the soundtrack to 28 Days Later was Godspeed. The whole film was cut to Godspeed in my head.
