"Identity" is a gripping soundtrack album composed by the renowned Alan Silvestri, released on April 25, 2003, under Madison Gate Records. This 32-minute score accompanies the 2003 psychological thriller film of the same name, directed by James Mangold and starring John Cusack, Ray Liotta, and Rebecca De Mornay. The album features a collection of tense and atmospheric tracks that perfectly complement the film's suspenseful narrative, where a group of travelers find themselves stranded in a remote motel during a storm, only to be picked off one by one by an unknown assailant.
The soundtrack opens with the haunting "Prologue," setting the tone for the chilling events to come. Tracks like "What Have You Done?" and "Suicide Jumper" build tension with their urgent, pulsating rhythms, while "Lou Is Dead" and "Bodies Disappear" deliver a sense of foreboding and dread. The album also includes more introspective pieces, such as "Settling In" and "Orange Grove," which provide moments of respite amidst the chaos. The final track, "End Credits," brings the album to a close with a sense of resolution.
"Identity" showcases Alan Silvestri's mastery of creating immersive and engaging film scores, with a diverse range of instruments and styles that keep the listener on the edge of their seat. The album features contributions from notable musicians, including George Doering on guitar and Katie Kirkpatrick on harp, adding depth and richness to the score.
