    Much too long. The music's OK, it's just dull, like you say.

    NP: Wyatt Earp - James Newton Howard

    More drama and less action than your average Western score but this is a fantastic effort nonetheless.

    cool

    It's very restrained, yes. It should have been called Work Days though, because it's excellent music to listen to while working. I like it enough for that, though I would have liked it to break free just once or twice from its, eh, restrain.

    NP: Exodus... Ernest Gold This is the new recording from Tadlow/Fitzpatrick and my first impression is this. I like it and never realized how much music there was in this film. Having said that, this is not a favorite film of mine. Not to say it is a bad film only I've probably seen it twice.
    Thomas


    I read the book before I ever saw the film, the book was very good and the film, IMO, is pants!

    Gold's music is a winner though and it can never be stated enough just how truly magnificent that theme is.


    I find that the rest of the material in the new discs is equally impressive, not just the main theme. There's so much good music in there!


    Though there's not much score to speak of you really should get to hear Gold's theme to CROSS OF IRON....it's another stunner.

    Earth Days - Michael Giacchino

    Struggling to connnect with this one.


    Very tough task.


    I read Giacchino was the composer of Donal Duck's Maui Mallard (a super nintendo and Genesis gama :P)

    NP:Tears of the sun (Zimmer)

    What apparently is an unpersonal score it contains 4 tracks of 8 minutes each one composed, arranged and programed by Zimmer himself.

    beyond all the tracks we know are excelent, I could name also "carnage" wich contains haunting vocals and a a visceral sound design

    PS:The credits in this Varese Realease is I what every Zimmer score must have.

    Played:

    La Provinciale - Ennio Morricone
    I don't know why this score doesn't get more mentions. I think it has truly beautiful themes, very cleverly composed tracks and has only 2-3 harsh tension tracks. All in all, a very nice Morricone album.

    The Pelican Brief - James Horner
    It's one of those albums where I had to see the movie too, to really appreciate the music. At first listen the majority of the tracks on the album was way too un-melodic for my taste but after watching the movie and returning to the CD I began to love it. There are some very good action stuffs on the CD and the final emotional pay-off is great.

    What I really found interesting was I hadn't heard Mad Mad World for a long time and suddenly there have been two recent recordings (Nestor and Fitzpatrick).

    Very enjoyable score, I'm not taken with a few 'pop' tracks but this is mostly lovely, a very ethereal score.

    True, nobody doubts it's going to work in the movie but it's ALL THE SAME TRICKS. Same instrumentation, arrangements, same philosophy behind the themes, same timpani and middles eastern percussion, same rhythms and tempi, same phrasing and dynamics, SAME SOUND, same everything.


    luckily I must say it picked near the end, because with the theme of Shirley Walker he was able to do something different. I must concur it sounds not completely like his rest, but there are several tracks that fit the bill though


    Is the movie watchable?

    NP : STAR TREK - Michael Giacchino



    I never gave this enough of a listen when I first heard it, a very good score but man what a shitty arse cover.

    I was dissapointed in the first place, then the main theme was in my head for 3 weeks and I was listening the whole score again and again.

    But the real fact is it is a score where the action music is disjointed (exept for the "Nailin’ the Kelvin " track), the spock theme is souless and the "labor of love" is forced into the scene.

    I could have been enjoyed much more this score if Giacchino was put togetter the action stuff from "nero sighted" and "nice to meld you" together instead doing a mixed tracks.

    NP:Star trek (Goldsmith)

    One of the most memorable theme ever.and One of the best scores ever wrotte.

    But how i said a lot of times, the tracks I most enjoy are the "hypnotic" and Herrman-esque "vjeur" tracks.

    Anyway, "klingon's battle" punk punk punk

    That theme does get stuck in your head Jordi. It's the gorgeous version of it in That New Car Smell that really does me in. cool

    I would be more than happy to see Giacchino return for another Trek outing.

    WRONG!


    Spock's Theme souless?! For from it. It's a perfect representation of the character.

    As for "Labour of Love"... it was the music that made me well up when I finally saw the movie. What could have easily turned into something cliche actually became the emotional highlight of the film. Giacchino NAILED it!

    That cue really didn't do anything for me. It didn't carry the emotion like similar cues in Lost do.

    I too want to see Giacchino score another Trek movie, simply so we can hear this so-called second part of the main theme.

    Not having seen the film you're out of my realm.

    Floating heads on the cover would have been pretty crap and lazy but why did a cover that looks like a shower head get used? I keep expecting to see Marian from Psycho screaming beneath it.
