Free Music Review: The Next Best Thing
Hit: 5 Stars
Before a person writes a review for a soundtrack they need to consiter two things: What movie does the soundtrack/score come from and are they rating the material in the soundtrack or rating they soundtrack for not having certain material on it.Whenever I ask for a person's thoughts or comments on the Cop Land score the first and immediate response is, "It's no Lord of the Rings." Of coarse it's not! The reason why it is not as good as the Lord of the Rings is because a soundtrack/score is usually as good as the movie it's for. Depending on the composer this may vary. Howard Shore has created a brilliant score from very little to draw from (quite a different situation when speaking about the Lord of the Rings)so of coarse the end results won't be as wonderful as the Lord of the Rings.
When looking at the other reviews for this score, I realize that the main reason for its low rating is that the other reviewers don't like the fact that non-Howard Shore tracks don't appear on the C.D. They want the songs that the movie watcher hears on the radio in the film or the songs the characters lisens to while having some down time. This is a score, so you should expect to have only original orchestrated work in the C.D., or look on the track listings to see if any particular song(s) appear on the C.D., but don't give the soundtrack a low score just because you are mad at being too incompetant to figure out what is actually on the C.D.
I'm not going to to go in depth at what's on this score, all I am saying is it's full with the quality and brilliance that Howard Shore has always produced when he has composed, conducted, and orchestrated a score for a film. No, it's not the Lord of the Rings, but for a medium class police drama, it is quite amazing.
