Kamen having some metal riff-ic fun
Reel 2 - Dialogue 2 | Michigan | 05/07/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Michael Kamen's score is mainly orcehstral, with electric guitar as its core instrument, courtesy of guitarist-extraordinaire Buckethead. With this combination, Kamen weaves differing tones of levity, melancholy, and reliable action, and keeps the entirety varied without leaning past the edge of listener contempt. My only regret is that the "Jack the Ripper" track (on either song or score album) isn't the film version, which contained the most intense moments of the score. If you enjoyed John Carpenter's "Ghost of Mars" album, this precursor makes a nice companion piece.
