Posted earlier today (by Robert) on BRMC’s social media channels:
I will be live on Reddit ‘AMA’ Tomorrow. Tuesday @ 4pm UK time / 9am Pacific Time. There’s been a lot that’s been going on. So literally anything from the 20th anniversary of B.R.M.C.’s first album, to this crazy ass film score (…and everything in between). I’ll do my best to remember the last 2 decades and what the hell just happened. I also personally really just like hearing stories from you guys since there’s so much shared history, and memories can get lost when locked inside the head all alone. PS hopefully Pete&Leah will get inspired to do an AMA next… But for now i’m first up to the plate-
Congratulations it’s a score!very grateful to Focus Films & Back Lot Music for their support and opportunity to mix and master these ‘instrumental compositions’. Out now digitally

[PIAS] posted this link on their Facebook page about Robert Levon Been’s soundtrack album to The Card Counter:
Proudly presenting the forthcoming album from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club‘s Robert Levon Been. ‘The Card Counter: Original Songs From The Motion Picture’ provides the soundtrack to Paul Schrader and Martin Scorsese‘s fifth collaboration. Enjoy a preview of the full film score by way of ‘Mercy Of Man’ (feat. S.G. Goodman) and read more:
Here’s a little more info on the soundtrack from the article:
Coinciding with the US release of The Card Counter on September 10th, this thirteen-track collection began as a one-song project but evolved into something much greater – Levon Been has composed several other original songs for this revenge thriller, as well as much of the film’s instrumental score and sound design.
The track listing is also available on BRMC’s online store:

when your silent eyes won’t speak but you can’t feel the quiet and your strumming all the strings but there’s nothing but darkness with your crying eyes it’s only your prayers that your fighting and the way is shown but you can’t see the world without starlight
so you hollow yourself in the mercy of man you just need something to find your way home and a spire of dreams are the finest of things you just need someone to carry you home
when your quiet eyes won’t speak but you can’t feel the silence and your forced to scrape and steal till your nothin but diamond
and royal kings or a choir of thieves you just need someone to find your way home a spire of dreams are the finest of things you just need someone to carry you home
