    What a score!!! (okay, maybe its old news for some of you, but I just discovered it)

    People, check this one out (I think its download only, Itunes or you can rip it off the game for a complete 2 cd version), its more diverse and complex than Cutthroat Island. I love especially the first 20 seconds of the "Asylia" track. (epic, grand and romantic at the same time.) Some tracks have that "complete" feel to it, with that I mean that the track has a special melodic idea in it and it has a beginning and an end. (just like the Asteriod Field of "the Empire Strikes Back".

    Very nice and I didn't know that Debney could write such complex stuff.

    Yes it's tons of fun. But it's distracting to hear Williams' "Duel of the Fate", Horner's Zorro/Troy theme and four-note danger motif, and even Philip Glass' minimalism strings ( in the 2-CD game rip version only) in this so-called "original score".

    And it makes me especially sad to think that maybe tens years later, John "temp-track" Debney perhaps would be one of the very few composers alive that are able to write full-orchestral bombastic scores in Hollywood...

    I also found some similarities with Beltrami's Hellboy.

    There are many "borrowings" in this score.
    But it's all so good! A very enjoyable piece of work by Debney. Quite huge really!
    Anybody know if there will be a CD release?
    The sound quallity is a distraction due to the MP3 quallity.

    Well, in the beginning, when we were discussing with Bregt and Martijn the fundamentals of the new forum, we agreed that it would be ok for big, specific subjects to be allowed to people to open new threads about them, moderated and controlled of course and i think that's the kind of cases we were talking about. smile

    I´m afraid the only complete Lair score is the one ripped from the game, as far as I know. If not, I´ll be happy to know too.
    Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you

    And when you say ripped I assume you mean the line-in version? dizzy

    I´m not sure what "line-in" means, but I could bet the answer is yes. tongue

    He means in game. There only CD version of the score is a 5 track promo. The rest is all iTunes or game rips at lower quality.

    Man this score kicks some major arse!

    Serpent Strait is probably my favorite track. It kicks so much butt. Both Serpent Strait and Firestorm are some of the best action tracks I've heard this year.

    This is such a full score, it combines so many genres into one score, you have epic/adventure, you have dramatic cues, ethnic writing, it truly is one of the best of 2007 in general, not just video game scores.

    It just goes to show, never underestimate video game scores, no matter how bad the reviews for the game were.

    Someone needs to do a better line-in rip than the one that's out at the moment. The game even has the whole music player built in. If I had a PS3 I think I'd buy the game just to record the music.
  26. Great covers DreamTheater wink thanks for posting them!!
