    Absolutely loved it. I thought it was gifted with qualities from past cinematic eras. Absolute gold.

    Some really beautiful stuff Elfman has written in here. One of his best scores of 2008.

    NP: Knowing - Marco Beltrami

    First listen... LOVE the pizzicato strings in the second track, "Door Jam." And those low jabbing Jaws like strings. What a fuc_king great track!!!

    EDIT - Not a fan of the soft atmospheric writing... those delicate piano tracks are becoming very cliche... but when Beltrami turns on the action music he fuc_king knocks it out of the park. I'm currently listen to "New York" and here is yet another fine example of how big loud action music SHOULD sound like. You can be loud yet still manage to compose something with dynamic, clear and well thought out orchestrations so that the listener doesn't get a headache with constant pounding and noise.

    I love this score, a shame that if Williams doesn't return that the producers didn't go to Doyle.

    I read a rumour somewhere that David Yates asked a crowd if they wanted JW back for Deathly Hallows, and they screamed "YES!", and he told them JW will be returning. Just a rumour of course, I only hope it's true!

    Deep Blue (George Fenton)

    WONDERFUL

    this'll do just fine right now!!

    beer punk lick punk beer

    Upon seeing the documentary 'Earth' again, also scored by Fenton I wished it had the emotional depth and excitiment from this album. I love the quiet tracks just as much as the more bombastic ones.

    Just finished playing KNOWING by Marco Beltrami and this guy has hit the ball out of the park. The album could have been cut down a bit for better listening but what Beltrami has composed takes us back to some of the epic work he did on Hellboy! Beltrami leaves your jaw on the floor during the massive finale which includes "Caleb Leaves" - "Roll Over Beethoven" - the Goldenthalesque "New World Round" and "Who Wants an Apple?" Alex Proyas has never really been afraid of large, powerful music in his films and Beltrami delivers just that! Big, epic, dramatic music at it's best. There are many slower moving quieter piano/string based atmospheric cues that unfortunately aren't as interesting but I still think Beltrami has a real winner here and Knowing is easily one of the years finest efforts!

    Up next...

    Big Trouble In Little China - John Carpenter

    80's nostalgia! Yeah!

    Totally agree. As I said yesterday, all the score is really good, but the last four tracks you mention are VERY good. Big epic music at its best!

  21. NP: Some Came Running - Elmer Bernstein

    I have to admit that I don't tend to get too far into this CD after hearing the raw, jagged title theme that Bernstein came up with for this movie. I remember seeing the title sequence on TV a while back and thinking "Wow, I have to have this score - I wonder if it's released in any form?" I was pleased to see that FSM had released it - and even more pleased to see that I had already bought it. shame

    Wow! Hadn't heard of this title.
    IMDB synopsis looks nice but there's no way to see these films unless you're in Europe and have the DVD. Netflix has a poor selection of these kind of Italian films.

    Erm, any gasping, sighing and moaning sounds in the score? crazy

    isn't their always moaning in Morricone's scores? wink

    It is pretty rare, and to be correct, it isn't that different from some other scores I've heard of him. But that can expected considering the wealth of scores he has to compose per year smile

    Agreed. "Door Jam" and "New York" are FANTASTIC (especially the latter - I love the decending motif at the beginning). The album then drags on for about a half hour and then picks up again at the end. A custom playlist will sort out any troubles though. cool

    Just finished: Haunted (Debbie Wiseman)

    I'm in love. Just some really lovely music (particularly "Juliet's Theme") and while the small orchestra sound rears its head from time to time, it doesn't diminish the quality of the music. Although I think Wiseman's suite for "Something Here" will be enough for some listeners, mainly due to the larger orchestra used.

    NP: Middletown (Wiseman)

    The cello and violin solos make this album, but aside from those it feels repetitive with the same two themes being repeated over again. I do admire Wiseman holding back on the instrumentation (such as no woodwinds and hardly any percussion), which given the context of the movie's plot, makes sense. Still it's a nice listen.
    http://unsungfilmscores.blogspot.com/ -- My film/TV/game score review blog
  28. Wiseman's scores generally are enough for me in their SOMETHING HERE form (i.e. as a couple of themes), although a couple - such as WILDE and ARSENE - play well as full album. (And if you didn't have the full album of HAUNTED, you'd miss that great secondary theme for piano.)
    A butterfly thinks therefore I am
  29. NP: Kundun (Glass)

    In a perfect world, there'd be 10 scores every year that were this distinctive and unique, film-fitting and musically-adventurous. But this is not a perfect world, and this score was a pretty rare beast.
