Search - James Horner :: The Forgotten (Score)

A bit uneaven and dull, but not without its moments

(5 out of 5 stars)

"First of all, that 5-star rating is to counterbalance the idiot who gave the album 2 stars simply because Amazon had no samples up yet; I would have given this album 3 stars if not for that.



The score itself is a mixed bag that often sounds more like Mark Snow than James Horner, and it counterbalances a melodic yet uneasy main theme with a liberal dose of metal clangs and electronics. The electronics are very harsh, and the tracks that feature them can be nigh unlistenable because of it. Still, though, that main theme is addicitve, and is worthy of being put on a compilation somewhere. This album is probably for fans of the movie and fans of James Horner only."
