Free Music Notes for Long Walk Home: Music from the Rabbit-Proof Fence

Free Music Review: Extraordinary! There are no words to describe this album
Hit: 5 Stars

This soundtrack to that movie has the perfect kind of music that sets the mood of the movie.

While I've never seen the movie I must say that the soundtrack to it is enough to bring up images out of that movie.

Those of you who enjoyed Passion will love this soundtrack too as it contains little of Peters vocals and more tribal sounds with some modern sounds except this record has a very Australian Aboriginal sound. Long Walk Home is mellower than The Last Temptation Of Christ but in my opinion it's the mellowness that sometimes makes this soundtrack more spooky than most of the Passion album. Also what makes this soundtrack so intense is that some songs start of as very quiet but all of a sudden it blasts into loud, rumbling beats as is evidenced on Stealing The Children. The song title couldn't have been better. I'm guessing this song was playing during the movie when Molly and her two siblings were taken from their home and sent to the settlements.

My favorites are The Sense Of Home, Moodoos Secret & Cloudless.

Sense Of Home reminds me of Kiss That Frog with that similar percussion instrument sounds and it's mournful melody. SOH to me is a track that gives a feeling of strong emotions with its airy breezy voice. My only complaint is that its only two minutes.

There are a lot of things to say about this soundtrack but I don't want to spoil the surprises that this soundtrack will offer but one thing for sure is that for those who might have been scared by the darkness of 1980s Melting Face record, come and enjoy the darkness and fright that this dark soundtrack has to offer. Those who are confined to just Sledgehammer or Big Time will need to slowly listening to this one over time and maybe not even care for it but I strongly recommend this soundtrack for those who like Peter Gabriels more adventurous works like Birdy & Passion.
